On Friday night, a policeman assault on a begging operation in Bangkok‘s Asok neighborhood called for the rescue of three young foreign ladies.

A blow of orphans from Sukhumvit Soi 3 to the Asok crossing was carried out by Lumphini officers, social workers, and workers from the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security.

They apprehended 13 poor girls — one Thai, 10 Cambodians and two Laotians. Three girls between the ages of five and seven were among the Cambodians.

The prisoners were screened, and arrest warrants were filed at the Lumphini train for breaking the Begging Control Act.

The Thai think is accused of receiving cash or other assets while making other people feel sorry. The refugees were accused of the same crime as they were of entering Thailand without permission.

The foreign citizens were taken to a house in Nonthaburi state for DNA testing, while the children were cared for at a Bangkok children’s home. Parents or guardians may be contacted in an effort to get in touch with them.

Recent studies have revealed that there are still more buskers in Bangkok’s metropolitan areas. The gypsies usually bring on kids, some as young as one month older, to attract love.

Bhuntin Noumjerm, a People’s Party MP for Bangkok, suggested that officials take critical behavior. He suggested DNA tests to check whether the adults and children they were seen with shared a natural connection.
