11-year-old girl allegedly sexually abused by grandfather in Pattaya

Bangkok, Thailand – In a shocking incident on May 25, an 11-year-old girl was subjected to unimaginable horror near her family’s residence in Soi Thung Klom Tan Man 13, East Pattaya, when her own 50-year-old grandfather allegedly attempted to rape her.

According to the parents, Mr. Aek (alias), 31, and Ms. Biu (alias), 21, their daughter Ae (alias) called her 7-year-old brother who was playing in Grandpa Chao’s room. Instead of finding her brother, Ae stumbled into a nightmare. She claimed that Grandpa Chao forcibly dragged her into his room, tied her hands and feet with a white rope, and tried to rape her. Fortunately, her 7-year-old brother arrived just in time to intervene and prevent further harm.

Traumatized and threatened by Grandpa Chao, Nong Ae initially kept the incident to herself. It was only when her older sister noticed her disturbing behavior that the truth came to light. On May 13, Nong Ae finally revealed the horrific ordeal to her family. Without hesitation, the parents accompanied their daughter to the Nongprue police station to file a report. However, the medical examination did not reveal any clear evidence of rape, as no penetration had taken place.

The situation escalated when Grandpa Chao again tried to break into the family home the next day, presumably to hurt Nong Ae. Fortunately, passersby heard her screams and foiled his sinister plans. The parents went to Grandpa Chao’s apartment to confront him with the allegations, but he was not home. Instead, they contacted the landlady where he was employed. The landlady denied the allegations, highlighting Grandpa Chao’s 15-year employment as an employee and hinting at his influential connections within the local community.

Despite their initial fear and lack of concrete evidence, the parents are determined to seek justice for their daughter. However, the investigation has stalled over the past ten days. They are urgently appealing to Khunying Pavena Hongsakul, chair of the Pavena Foundation for Children and Women, to intervene and ensure that the perpetrator is brought to justice and justice is done for Nong Ae.
