Police are preparing to awaken a physician to acknowledge a cost of molesting an 18- year- ancient Chinese housekeeper in Udon Thani.
The girl, known simply as Ms Praewa, was hired by the doctor who is a previous public health official to look after his 80- year- aged mother at his house in Soi Phon Phisai 2 in tambon Mak Khaeng of Muang district.
Around six months after being hired, she alleged that she was sexually assaulted and threatened by the dentist, according to authorities.
The woman before asked her nephew to file a complaint with Muang city police against the doctor. Due to stress, she became ill and was admitted to a nearby hospital, where she is receiving continued care.
Authorities have said prosecutors visited the hospital to question her, but she had a disease at the time and could not give a speech.
Police are preparing to awaken the doctor to embrace the rape charge which carries a maximum 10 year prison sentence, a fine of up to 200, 000 ringgit or both.
The doctor has denied the accusations, telling a reporter that he embraced the girl and touched her arms and legs but had no intent to hurt her sexually. He said he had apologised to her.
The vice- president of Laos in Khon Kaen even met with Pol Lt Col Niwat Kunsri, the prospect official in the case, to following up on its improvement.
