Phuket's Nepalese to Meet Over Freeing of Confessed Rapist

PHUKET: Leaders among Phuket's Nepalese community are to meet on Sunday over the freeing of a man who confessed earlier this year to being a serial rapist of Nepalese women on Phuket.

Police Lieutenant Patapee Srichai, who carried out the investigation of the case against Parkbhum Maneerat, 29, said yesterday he was surprised to learn the man had been freed.

The only charge Parkbhum still faces is impersonating a police officer, according to a report in this week's Phuket Gazette.

The President of the Thai-Nepalese Association of Phuket, Phanupong Limbuprasertkul, 42, told Phuketwan that many people among Phuket's Nepalese community of about 3000 were living in fear that Parkbhum would rape again.

''We feel we can't trust the local authorities,'' he said.

Khun Parkbhum, a married floor polish salesman with two young children who lives in Phuket City, was freed in June.

His year-long reign of terror ended when the latest of his victims, a 25-year-old woman, went to police in Patong. She had been kidnapped and taken to Krabi, where she was raped about 15 times.

Khun Parkbhum's method, posing as a police officer, was to threaten the women with exposure or that he would end their permission to stay in Thailand if they did not accompany him.

About 200 people from the Nepalese community gathered outside Patong's Kathu Police Station after Khun Parkbhum's arrest in April, grateful to have him in custody.

The outcome of the case against Khun Parkbhum is likely to be closely watched by Phuket's international envoys, who have been campaigning for better treatment on Phuket for women who make allegations of rape.

British honorary consul Martin Carpenter told a regular quarterly meeting between honorary consuls and Phuket Governor Tri Augkaradacha last month that a British woman who alleged she was raped on Phuket decided earlier this year not to pursue the case.

She felt as though she was not being listened to sympathetically by police, Mr Carpenter said.

The case of a French woman who said she was raped on Phuket last month only became apparent to Phuket's French honorary consul when her name appeared on a list of offences involving expats prepared for the consul's meeting.

Phuket police are supposed to notify honorary consuls or embassies of serious allegations involving their citizens immediately.

Odd photo-the cheeky rapist and the laughing policemen. The rapist has a "Hey, I might just rape you next!" glint in his eye.

There's a room needed a hand grenade.

Can't you see the photo Rodders? Or are you just as thick as two short planks?

WTF are they smiling for ?

**aging one** · 11-09-2011, 01:14 PM

The Nepalese run most of the trinket stalls on Phuket, I know for sure they do Kata and Karon, as its where we shop for "junk". Nice they all speak English and are friendly as heck, as opposed to the Thai's doing the same thing. Sorry state of affairs.

it's quite frightening just how corrupt the royal police force are in phuket. having an international tourist destination run by violent criminal thugs is one of thailand's biggest shames. and yes, i put the police in the same basket as the tuk tuk drivers, and jet ski scammers - violent criminal thugs.

Since one hand greases the other you have it exactly correct Wally.

**harrybarracuda** · 11-09-2011, 02:05 PM

What gets me is that what is going on in Phuket doesn't even embarrass central government, so I stick them on the same list as well, Wally.

**Wally Dorian Raffles** · 11-09-2011, 02:07 PM

^&^^

yep. all peas in a pod

**Wally Dorian Raffles** · 11-09-2011, 02:11 PM

i can imagine the converstation in the OP photo.

"yes, i raped all of those foreigners"

"actually, we fuck over foreigners for a living too. don't worry, we'll have you out in no time, so you can help us to keep on fucking foreigners"

"i knew you guys would understand! hahahaha!"

**Wally Dorian Raffles** · 11-09-2011, 02:17 PM

i wonder what the sentence would have been if it was a nepalese male caught serial raping young thai girls?

**Bettyboo** · 11-09-2011, 02:30 PM

^ sums the country up nicely...

20 years ago the Thais could get away with this shit, even 10 years ago they could, but now with the net soon they are going to have shot themselves in the feet so many times they are going to really get hit big time. Australia, Germany, The USA, and others are beginning to wake up and publicize the shit going on down there. Pissing off the US navy was not a good idea either. They are even targeting any cruise ship that dare dock for a day tour.

Bali and Phuket used to compete to see who got the most business. Then the frigging islamic idiots blew up a night club on Kuta. It killed Bali for a while, but its back and now its tourist arrivals make Phuket pale in comparison. I really like Kata Beach its one of my favorite places in the world, but the rest of Phuket is down the tubes. The first thing I do is rent a car at a good rate from a local Phuket boy, then I go stay in a hotel run by Italians, then I shop from the Nepalese.

Basically thats just sad. Same damn thing perhaps even worse on Samui with the European biker gangs halfway in control of the place as well.

Ing K a Thai journalist made a BBC 2 Documentary called Thailand for Sale. It was hell 15 years ago. She concluded the one hour show with. "Thai's the nicest people money can buy". Banned here, and I havent been able to find it on the net.

Harry you do a lot of downloading take a look for it.

Here's the original story of his arrest. Not sure why a new thread was started, it would have made more sense to add to the original.

At the time "arry" was suffering slight eye strain not to mention nursing a serious hangover (self induced) and with respect I would prefer the term "ten shorts planks" in future please.

I had a look in Bit Che, and the first thing it found was "The Hangover II"!

No sign of it.

I'll have a sniff around.
