A Thai man proudly confessed to previously stalking and raping more than 20 drunk women in the Isaan province of Nakhon Ratchasima.

The most recent victim filed a complaint at Pho Klang Police Station, stating that the rapist, later identified as 23 year old Thanapat, sneaked into her room and raped her on August 3. She also provided CCTV footage that captured Thanapat’s actions to the police.

In the footage, the victim’s female friends are seen carrying the heavily intoxicated victim into her condominium at about 2.14am, while Thanapat secretly followed them. The rapist pretended to be a resident of the condo, which led the victim’s friends to leave the entrance open for him.

Thanapat waited until all of the victim’s friends left before checking whether the room was locked. Unfortunately, the friends did not lock the room, allowing Thanapat to commit the crime. He was later seen leaving the accommodation at about 3.52am.

The police reviewed additional security camera footage along the route from the entertainment venue where the victim and her friends visited her condo, which enabled them to identify the rapist. The police closely monitored Thanapat and eventually arrested him yesterday, September 3, at the car park of an entertainment venue.

Thanapat reportedly bragged about the sexual assault and confessed that he planned to do it again at the entertainment venue where he was arrested.

Thanapat explained that he worked at a barbecue shop and frequently committed crimes after work. He would visit multiple nightclubs, monitor intoxicated women until they left, and then follow them to their accommodations, seizing the opportunity to assault them when they forgot to lock their doors.

According to Thanapat, he sometimes stalked the victims until he knew where they hid spare keys to their rooms. On other occasions, he would convince the victims that they agreed to the sexual activities while they were drunk. He claimed to have committed similar acts against more than 20 women in the province.

The police have detained Thanapat at Nakhon Ratchasima Provincial Court and have denied his bail request. Officers disclosed that no family members visited Thanapat or requested a temporary release.
