CityNews – On 24th June, at 2 p.m. an unnamed teacher of a well known high school in Lamphun (neither will police give the name of the school) took two 16 year old male students into Police Region 5 Station and reported to Police Colonel Weerachon Boontawee, the head of Children, Women and Family Protection and Anti Human Trafficking of Police Region 5, that the two boys had suffered sexual abuse by another male teacher.

Police Colonel Weerachon told the press that the police are currently investigating the suspect. He said the suspect, a homosexual man, has been accused of sexually assaulting the two students while they were studying in Mathayom 2 and Mathayom 3.

Although the children are now talking to police it is reported that for years they kept quiet because they were afraid to report the alleged abuse. Police say that the children eventually found the courage to speak out and tell their parents. The parents then told a teacher at the school.

“We are currently looking for evidence and more information, that includes interviewing the children. When we have sufficient evidence we will get a warrant for the arrest of the teacher,” Police Colonel Weerachon told the press.
