Police are questioning a 20-year-old person who is alleged to have kidnapped and taken hostage 12 years old woman who was saved on Friday following an intervention by an eminent internet whistleblower.

At her mother’s demand, Guntouch Pongpaiboonwet requested the assistance of the officers in Rayong to find the missing woman because she was concerned that she might have been the victim of sexual assault or human trafficking.

The family, whose identity was withheld, filed a complaint against the person, whom her child had met online, with the Bang Na officers.

According to Mr. Guntouch, the mother claimed to have seen a smart chat history between the suspect and her daughter.

After three or four months of communicating online, the person invited the woman to join him and put pressure on her to do so. It is unclear if he was aware of the woman’s time.

The woman was seen on surveillance camera video asking the owner of the room where she lived on Wednesday to drive her to the Ekamai Bus Terminal so she could visit relatives in Rayong.

According to the girl’s mother, she was unable to access the internet because she had left her smartphone in the room.

According to Mr. Guntouch, the mother of the sufferer spoke with the boy’s mother on Friday night. In exchange for keeping the situation private, she offered payment.

According to Mr. Guntouch, the suspect’s mother revealed during the contact that her child and the lady had left for a hotel, despite her claim that she was aware of his whereabouts.

According to police, the suspect would immediately be charged with child abduction, and the victim may be questioned by experts.
