Transvestite nabbed for procuring boys for sex
Police arrested a transvestite at a hotel in the Silom area Tuesday night allegedly for procuring Thai boys for sodomy.
Thanom Yaidee, a 34-year-old worker at the Nature Boy bar on Silom Road, was arrested in his room at the Tower Inn on the same road at 8pm on Tuesday as plainclothes police from the Crimes Against Children, Juveniles, and Women Suppression Division (CCSD) contacted him to arrange a procurement. The suspect brought along four youths aged 14-17.
Mr. Thanom, alias Jedam Silom, demanded 5,000 baht for each boy and 5,000 baht more for his procuring services. The police arrested him immediately after handing over the money.
Mr. Thanom was quoted as confessing to procuring Thai boys and men for foreigners and male and female Thai clients.
