Female party entertainer accuses police officer of rape and physical assault
A female party entertainer in the northern province of Lamphun accused a police officer of raping and physically assaulting her. The accused officer denied the allegations.
The 25 year old party entertainer, identified as A, filed a complaint at Mueang Jee Police Station on November 22 that a Chiang Mai province police officer had raped and assaulted her in Nong Narm district of Lamphun province.
The woman was taken to Lamphun Hospital for a medical examination to find evidence to support her complaint. The results of the examination have not yet been released.
Police then checked the name of the officer mentioned by the woman in their database and discovered that the officer was a deputy superintendent of a Chiang Mai Police Station.
The accused officer turned himself in at Mueang Jee Police Station yesterday, November 28. He was charged with sexual assault and forcible sexual assault but denied all charges.
Mueang Jee Police Station Superintendent Piyapong Chamnarn told ThaiRath that he could not reveal the identity of the accused officer or give further details about the case. He said he would have to wait for the results of the medical examination before proceeding with the investigation.
Justice promised
Piyapong insisted that he would do justice to both parties and that there would be no bias in the investigation even if the suspect was the police officer. He added that the accused policeman would face double punishment if found guilty.
In related news, Thai man Watanyu Wiriyachayothai shared with KhaoSod his experience of being blackmailed and cheated out of money by a female party entertainer, which landed him in jail.
The entertainer, Pare, filed a police report accusing Watanyu of raping her. Watanyu denied all allegations, claiming that Pare worked as a party entertainer and sex worker and that she was willing to provide him with sex services in exchange for 8,000 baht.
Watanyu said he even paid off her 120,000 baht debt and she promised to provide a service for him when he requested. However, Pare reneged on her promise and later filed a complaint against him, accusing him of raping her.
After three months in jail, Watanyu was released on bail and is currently still fighting for justice. He said he submitted all the evidence to the court showing that Pare had consented to sexual activity. He also issued a warning to others who hire party entertainers for both entertainment and sex to beware of a problem he faced.
