snoop1130 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Soldier accused of horrific hot water punishment against five year old Thai child In what is one of Thailand's worst cases of child abuse a soldier has been accused of torturing a five year with boiling water. The soldier - the husband of a woman entrusted with looking after the boy from the north - tied the hands of the five year old behind his back as a punishment. Then he put a bag containing boiling water down the front of his trousers and left it there as the little boy screamed in agony. Despite the screams he did not stop the horrific punishment. The boy ended up in hospital with grievous burns to the entire area of his lower abdomen, upper thighs and genitals, part of which had to be amputated, which meant he needed to have a catheter fitted just to enable him to urinate. The mother had paid for child care to the couple who live in Pathum Thani north of Bangkok. She opted for child care because she had to work in another province from her northern hometown. She suspected something was wrong in January when her normal calls enquiring about her son went unanswered. She went to see the couple and was told her son had been burnt and was in hospital. Her son soon told her what had happened and she reported the matter to the police. But that was six months ago and nothing has happened in the case. So she has now spoken to well known human rights lawyer Songkarn Achariyasap who has taken on the case. He revealed pictures of the little boys ghastly wounds and says he intends to take the mother and son to national police HQ and appeal to the interior ministry to seek justice in the matter.

Why didn't the police behave like normal human beings and give this the priority it deserves? It's no wonder that sometimes people take the law into their own hands.

And another example of why it should be totally compulsory, by law, for hospitals and doctors to reports such things urgently to the police.

Police, could, like this case be a complete waste of time. There needs to be some other reporting system to ensure it is acted on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonltr Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 You don't have to be a Red Bull heir for no action to be taken by the police. Just be in uniform. Even a lowly soldier is not prosecuted as it would 'damage the reputation' of the military. I wonder if this guy will find a villian's part in the current military propagandist TV soap opera.

Cool Guy 5000 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 The mother reported this to the police six months ago and nothing has been done. An investigation as to why the police have taken no action in this case needs to be undertaken. Action is needed in both the awful case regarding the child and the police inaction. Disgusting on many levels. CG5000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardinalblue Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 The hospital is at fault for not reporting it to the local district attorney's office...child abuse reporting should be mandatory.... the police should only have limited responsibilities - upholding the law and enforcement... charges and and convivtions rests with the DA office and judicial system... how their system works need reform or police have too much power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dukeleto Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 <deleted>! This $&%T makes my blood boil.

spidermike007 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Soldiers here are rarely punished for their crimes. The army is accorded a high position in this society under normal circumstance. Now that they are in power, most are completely above the law. Perhaps they will make an example of him, since it appears he is a low ranked fool.
