American man denies sexually assaulting 3 year old Thai girl in Phuket

An American man, suspected of sexually assaulting a three-year-old girl in the Rawai area of Phuket, firmly denied the accusations against him. However, police are adamant they have gathered enough evidence to warrant his arrest.

The child sex abuse case came to light when a Thai man named Bao found the three year old girl crying in pain outside her home in the Rawai district of Phuket on Monday, September 23. He checked on the girl and discovered blood flowing from her private parts, so he and other locals rushed the girl to Vachira Phuket Hospital.

MRG Online reported today, September 26, that the medical examination revealed the girl was weak and had a torn vagina.

Bao pointed out the suspicious foreign man, later identified as a 45 year old American national, as the girl told him that a foreign man hurt her.

Bao said the unnamed foreigner arrived at the girl’s home on Sunday night and appeared drunk. He came to drink with the girl’s aunt, named Jiab, and two others.

According to Bao, this foreign man visited the house before. He often came twice a month and sometimes brought his wife. Bao added that this foreigner and his wife bought snacks, milk, and diapers for the girl.

Chalong Police Station officers summoned the girl’s aunt for questioning yesterday, September 25. They also reviewed security camera footage near the community and found the American man left the scene in the early hours of Monday morning on a motorcycle.

Police tracked down the foreign man and managed to accompany him to the police station yesterday. This American man entered Thailand under a non-immigrant visa on December 8 of last year and was allowed to stay in the country until March 12 of next year, 2025.

Officers reported that the American man denied the accusation but they did not clarify further details of the questioning or the excuse or explanation provided by the foreigner.

Police told MGR Online that they had sufficient evidence to link the American man to the crime and would be seeking an arrest warrant from the Phuket Provincial Court very soon.
