Revealing the "Chinese beggar gang" earning 10,000 baht per day Found many suspicious points linked to human trafficking.

Revealing the “Chinese beggar gang” that sits for a few hours and earns tens of thousands a day from pity. Found several points of error. It may be a human trafficking ring.

At 3:30 p.m. on November 21, 2023 in the program “Open your mouth with pride” On Thairath TV, Channel 32, a program hosted by Mr. Pakpoom Pansatit talked about the case. “Gun, the mighty one” Coordinate with police to arrest a Chinese woman wearing a student uniform and begging for alms. His face was doused with acid, his hands and feet were stubbed, as if he had purposely made the poor disabled person to beg for alms. Revealing that each person earns more than ten thousand baht per day. Later it was also noted that The said process is human trafficking.

Mr. Kanthat Phongpaiboonwet or Gun Jom Phalang Said that this happened because he was informed by the FC that he saw a woman with an amputated hand. The face looked like it had been hit by acid. I want him to help check. Therefore coordinated with the Secondary Educational Service Area Office.

But when they arrived at the scene, the PMO said that this beggar’s appearance was similar to beggars who had been arrested before. What is similar is that after a while a Thai interpreter will show up. It looks like a request for clarification. This beggar was found sitting at the entrance to Platinum Mall. He sat for 6 hours and earned 10,400 baht.

After the second one, someone sent more information. Until a third beggar was found in front of Major Pinklao Department Store. This one was accompanied by an interpreter. But it’s a new interpreter. The noteworthy point is before going to arrest This beggar ran into the bathroom. Another strange thing is that there is a room key and a SIM card as well. But the beggar claimed that Collected from the side of the road This beggar found Has an income of about 10,700 baht per day. So far, we have caught 6 people from 7 places we’ve checked, out of 9 people on the list.

Kan Jom Phalang also said that the style of sitting and begging It was like there was a shift in shifts. When they were arrested, everyone didn’t have a passport. But when arrested, there will be a Thai interpreter riding in a luxury van and bringing the passport.

While Captain Dr. Thanakrit Jitareerat Assistant Minister Deputy Prime Minister said that previously from talking with you and consulting with each other. Looked and noticed something wrong. So he asked me to file the matter first and go to the Department of Special Investigation. I suspect that Is it involved in human trafficking? Because when the beggar was arrested No one picked up the phone. But an interpreter appeared. I don’t know how they knew. The important thing is that this group of people entered legally.

For the criminalization process according to the Begging Control Act This matter is not just an adjustment. But it is written that There is a penalty of imprisonment or a fine. In the past, I saw that I was a disabled person, so I just adjusted. Make this group of people come back and continue. But if the law enforcement process is adjusted to prosecute and file charges The court sentenced him to imprisonment. The prison sentence is 1 year and they will be blacklisted for entering Thailand.

Gun Jom Phalang also said that in both cases he had met a Thai translator. He meant that he would ask for money from the police. So can I go back myself? He didn’t know if the interpreter spoke or had an interpreter translate. So he said, “Don’t look down on Thai people.” Money can’t buy everyone. This story is the image of Thailand. In addition, it was found that the number that the beggar called. Find that he secretly memorized the number and searched it in the Line application and found that Its name is similar to a gambling website. Another point to notice is If the beggars don’t know each other Why are passports renewed on the same day?

Captain Dr. Thanakrit said that this matter must be divided into 2 ways: if this group of people is found People must notify the authorities. Action must be taken regarding the Beggar Act, meaning there will be imprisonment. This will cause this group of people to be blacklisted. At the same time, the police or DSI must expand the results whether it is a human trafficking ring or not.
