Special Police Raid on Pattaya Gay Bars Proves Unfruitful


Share
Following an unnamed tip-off, the Department of Special Investigations (DSI) Pattaya branch and narcotics officers raided a collection of popular gay bars in South Pattaya on Sunday. Searching for illegal sex shows, narcotics and underage entertainers, the DSI’s raid uncovered little evidence to support the investigation, but detained one underage staff member in the raids.

Pattaya, the 29th of August 2010 [PDN]: At approximately 00:30am, DSI investigators headed by Colonel Songsak Raksakul along with narcotics control officers and Colonel Nunthawut Suwanla-ong (Pattaya Police Superintendent) raided three gay bar establishments in the Soi Pattaya Land 1 area of South Pattaya.

In total, 90 officers were involved in the raids, which were instigated after several anonymous tip-offs from tourists visiting the area had been received. Allegedly, all three venues, ‘Dynamite Boy Club’, ‘X-boy Club’ and ‘Kawai Boy’ had been involved with nightly explicit sex shows, drug use and distribution as well as underage entertainment and prostitution.

Pattaya DSI, a newly opened division in the area lead by Colonel Raksakul, raided the venues detaining 18 staff. One member of staff was found to be underage, while no reason was given as to the detention of the other 17 employees. Despite their alleged tip-off, the investigations found no evidence of illicit sex shows, or underage prostitution, while no mention was made by officers as to the presence of illegal narcotics.

In conclusion, of the somewhat failed raid, Col. Suwanla-ong of the Pattaya police explained that all police divisions were intensely monitoring the actions of all gay establishments in Pattaya, specifically mentioning that operations displaying explicit sex shows and or supplying underage prostitution were being targeted.

One of the things I like about Thailand is that you can be yourself here.If you are straight,gay or whatever you can live a normal life and that is great.I dont like all the ladyboys or gay bars so I stay away from them.Now back to this story . . . they found no proof of any sexshows or prostitution ?? I wonder how much that cost the barowners ?? To be tipped off before a raid is normal here in Thailand.

Farangpattaya, it is clear that you are a Politically correct person. But nobody can deny, Homosexuality is deviant in nature and a breeding ground for disease and other sexually abhorrent sexual practices. Because something is legal does not mean it is right.

German Guy: Is that the reason why gays were deported and killed in YOUR country around 65 years ago?

In SOME countries,being gay is illegal. In MOST countries it's legal or at least allowed to be gay.

Glad to read, that Germany still isn't civilized.

This must have been a nice little money spinner for the boys in brown.

This club has paid its way out, if they had not then there are many ways the police could find to prosecute.

Why would a queer come to Pattaya anyway, oh yes to see underage boys in white pants.
Its just wrong to stick your winkle into a starfish, sick queers.

They didn't find illegal sex shows. Perhaps they missed the show times posted outside X-Boys.

It is good to see the Pattaya Police cracking down on Gays. In most civilised Nations Homosexuality is illegal or was a criminal offence up until recently.

If seeing a 70 year old punter walking hand-in-hand with an 18 year old girl is not quite enough to make you vomit, seeing a similar 70 year old with an 18 year old ladyboy almost certainly will.
