That’s show business

CHON BURI: Some nude performers at a Pattaya go-go bar obviously didn’t realize certain members of the enthralled audience were actually members of the local vice squad. After watching the sex show for an unreported length of time, Pol Maj Col Vasu Seangsuksai and his team of undercover officers sprang into action and arrested the seven performers: six women and one man. Among those viewing the decidedly “adult” entertainment on the night of April 23 were a number of minors, both male and female. Taken into custody was one Rattikal Chindarak, 37-year-old manager of the unnamed establishment. Police confiscated as evidence a number of items used in the stage show, including an unspecified number of bananas, packs of cigarettes, candles, two goldfish and two ping-pong balls. Each performer was fined 500 baht. Rattikal was charged with hosting illegal sex shows in public and allowing juveniles on the premises.
