Flashermac Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 A Burmese man has been arrested over his alleged involvement in human trafficking and forced child labour after he "bought" three Myanmar children from their mother for Bt1,800 each, police said Saturday. The police's Anti-Human Trafficking Division yesterday announced the arrest of Maung Myang-U, 22, who allegedly paid the mothers of the three children, all aged under 15, and used them to sell roses to tourists on Bangkok streets. The suspect, who was arrested at a rented room in Phra Nakhon district on Friday, also reportedly had to pay the mothers Bt1,800 a month for each child, said division commander Maj-General Kittisak Durongkhawibul. http://www.nationmultimedia.com/breakingnews/Myanmar-man-arrested-on-charges-of-human-trafficki-30236808.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunsanuk Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Hi, "had to pay the mothers Bt1,800 a month for each child," That's renting, not buying. Anyway, doesn't change the fact the guy is scum, as is the mother for renting out her kids. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
