PHUKET: A series of raids by police have safely taken into protection 17 children held by a human-trafficking operation in Patong, which saw children who did not bring home enough money being beaten with a coat hanger.

 

Lt Gen Jaruwat Waisaya, an assistant to the national police chief, explained at a press conference at Phuket Provincial Police headquarters in Phuket Town yesterday (Feb 23) that the children were taken into protection after raids at four locations in Patong.

 

Officers from Anti-Trafficking in Persons Division in Bangkok first raided a home in Soi Sila Uthit in Patong, where officers arrested foreign national Ngo Sun, 33, whose nationality was not disclosed, and Thai national Suphattra Charoensuk, 22, originally from Koh Samui.

How can run such an operation with so many children around without arousing suspicions of the people around or is it that people just don't care or what?...

I think people are afraid... They don't want to get into trouble...

Perhaps those people care about different things, like bulging envelopes.

Or just feed them to the pigs.

That is unfair to pigs, they should not be fed rubbish, Quite apart from the fact that pigs feed much of the world they are the closest thing we humans have to a workable replacement heart valve

you might not like Trump for whatever number of reasons but "the fight against human trafficking is not one of them"  

Strange that he loves Saudi so much when they are one of the major recipients of trafficked modern slaves. OK if your mates are doing it?

It is pretty sad isn't it?  Keep head down, mind own business, don't want to risk police or mafia type retaliation.  Shows how little faith the people have in the civilian police force which is governed and subservient to the military.
