Calls to clean up Pratumnak area as glue sniffer attempts to rape 14 year old

Calls have been made to clear up a notorious area of Pattaya after a man tried to rape a 14 year old girl near some toilets.

The area in question is beneath the overpass leading to Bali Hai port at the foot of Pratumnak Hill.

TNews reported that the public and tourists are at risk from attack if something concrete is not done by the police and municipality to stop illegal behavior in the area.

Yesterday police received a frantic call from an 18 year old woman who had been waiting for her 14 year old sister outside some toilets.

A man produced what she thought was a knife and threatened her. She ran off to alert people nearby while the man - aged about 30 - broke down the door of the toilets and threatened the 14 year old inside ordering her to remove her clothing.

But she fought back and screamed causing the man to flee while police were alerted.

After a manhunt in the Pratumnak Hill area the man was found in some undergrowth sniffing glue.

He was named as Burapha Suchart, 32, who described himself as a trader in second hand goods. He said he did not use a knife - it was a stick covered in a cloth made to look like a weapon.

TNews said that the Pattaya council had recently installed extra lighting under the overpass but problems continued to plague the area that was used for illegal activity.

They said there were a lot of homeless people in the area and there was drug taking and public sex acts taking place there.

They called on the authorities to act further to prevent more trouble for the public and tourists in Pratumnak.

There are few areas in Pattaya where I feel unsafe.

This has probably always been one of the worst.

Accelerate when passing by motorbike in the dark.

 

(I should mention that I rarely went to the darkside)

[tonywillo]

I often walk past this area on walk to Bali hai and the phrakiat  hill never noticed anything unusual or illegal here.

Is this where the go cart place is located? I walked there many times and saw nothing. Maybe I was lucky.

The whole of Pratumnak hill is dodgy after dark. No shortage of rapes and robberies and abductions and what-have-you reported there over the years. I would never walk there at night, away from the part of the main road that has shops and restaurants etc.

Some songteaw pratumnak lines would be pratical for tourists and they would be less of a target if indeed that is a doggy spot.

Pattaya sounds like a nice "golf resort". ?

Looks like he's really come unstuck this time.

In a 2 km² area, mix equal amounts of

1)prostitutes

2)agogo bars

3)ladyboys

4)booze

5)drugs

6)child molesters

7)gays

8)cheap viagra

9)moonlighting

10)massage(sex)parlors

 

Enjoy!

There must be reasons why they built gates on the way up to Pattaya park that are closed in the night.

Also not making you feel comfortable to see all the "warning of pickpockets"/"bag snatchers on motorbike" signs on the Pattaya park road.

During the daytime I have no problem driving there. But still....

I often saw homeless people under the bridge in the night.

Only from reading: "bush babes" giving extra discounted service.

Disgusting and dangerous.

Maybe "boyfriend" hiding with the club.

 

[steven100]

oh .....    Don't think I'll visit that area .....

[mok199]

as a recovering addict I know what to look for and in my 20+ years in Thailand ihave only seen 2 occasions where someone was engaging in drug consumption ..travelling in phillipines it is common to see gangs of children sniffing solvent. I think in Thailand we are fortunate ,it is hidden very well...of course the odd time it will hit the news,but in general it is safe here,stop thinking this city is a swirling vortex of sex and crime..every big city has its areas for drugs,pattaya is no exception,but in my experience, this city offers everything anyone could ask for,and with that comes the dark side........just clean up the beach...

I mainly see mostly thais running up and down the hill for exercise none of what u describe however the area does need an upgrade as its dark and isolated etc.

[mikebell]

A couple of daring cops who are not afraid of the dark could patrol the area?  Oh... sorry, this is Pattaya.

When walking you really need to keep your eyes on the road / path otherwise the risk of breaking a leg or breaking something else is way too high. You won't see what's happening in the area when keeping an eye on the road...

"He was named as Burapha Suchart, 32, who described himself as a trader in second hand goods. "AKA a thief.

the same profession that  Al Capone used on his business cards.
