Four siblings escaped their drug-addicted father in the central province of Chai Nat only to encounter a man posing as a saint who offered help and later attempted to rape the eldest girl. They were eventually rescued by police in Chon Buri.
Officers from Nong Yai Police Station shared the siblings’ story with the media. They are now safe and are being cared for by the Chon Buri Provincial Social Development and Human Security Office at a shelter for children and families in the province.
One of the siblings gave an interview to Channel 7, stating that they escaped their home in Chai Nat because they could no longer endure physical abuse from their drug-addicted father.
The four then met a man who offered support and invited them to stay at his home. They accepted and went with him. Unfortunately, they had to escape again a few days later because this false saint sexually assaulted the eldest girl and attempted to rape her.
The eldest girl contacted a friend living in Chon Buri and asked if she could stay with her. The friend was willing to help but the friend’s parents allegedly refused to help.
The four siblings then walked along the street with no clear destination until they met Police Officer Wanlop Thasanathanapong.
Wanlop told the media that he was patrolling when he came across the siblings by the roadside. He stopped to speak with them and took them to the police station after learning of their tragic situation.
The report does not mention the siblings’ mother, or their ages or names.
In another similar case previously reported, a 19 year old man, Auttawit, also known as Pai, became well-known on Thai social media for his efforts to improve the lives of himself and his siblings. Auttawit decided to leave education and work as a petrol station attendant to care for his three siblings.
Their parents were addicted to drugs and were repeatedly imprisoned. The four are now living alone, but Auttawit has managed to care for himself and each of his siblings. They received much encouragement and support after Auttawit began sharing their story on the TikTok app.
Auttawit stated that he rents a house for 3,000 baht where he lives with his siblings and that they are happy with their lives now.
