This one-legged man managed to infect "nearly" 100 Thai teenagers?

 

 

Thailand to deport one-legged german

21 November 2004

 

BANGKOK: Thailand is to deport a one-legged German accused of trying to infect nearly 100 Thai teenage girls with HIV through unprotected sex.

 

A court sentenced Hans-Otto Schiemann, a 56-year-old former sailor, to two months in jail for overstaying his visa as Thailand had no law to punish him for having unprotected sex, lawyer Warinporn Hongchumpae said.

 

"The court ruled that he had to be jailed for 58 days, which he has already completed while awaiting a court verdict," Warinporn, who was appointed by the provincial court, 340km northeast of Bangkok, to represent him, told Reuters.

 

Schiemann, a native of Schweinfurt in Bavaria who had been living in the province for 10 years, was arrested in September and would be taken to Bangkok for deportation, she said.

 

Deliberate transmission of the Aids virus is a crime in many Western countries and the majority of US states. A Texan who knew he was HIV-positive was sentenced to life in prison in 2003 for sexually assaulting an 11-year-old boy.

 

However, in many developing countries, including those in southeast Asia where Aids and commercial sex are rife, effective legislation to address the problem has not been passed.

 

Schiemann, who launched a tirade of abuse against Thai women and called them "witches" and "monkeys," refused a prison blood test to confirm his HIV status, but admitted to reporters last month he had HIV.

 

He said he had done nothing wrong.

HIV-scare man resurfaces

Published on Mar 22 , 2005

 

 

A German man at the centre of a mass HIV scare last year has showed up at a local market, upsetting many residents, police said yesterday.

 

Former-soldier Hans-Otto Schiemann, 56, was earlier accused of spreading HIV by paying up to 400 women and girls in the province to have unprotected sex, allegedly out of spite after contracting the virus from a 17-year-old Thai girl.

 

He has been married to a Thai for five years and his wife has said she is dying of Aids. He was sentenced to 58 days in jail and was deported last November for overstaying his visa since 2001.

 

Early this week, villagers told police they saw the man at a local market, said Lt-Colonel Khampol Nonuch of Muang Chaiyaphum police station. "We know he's back but we don't know what to do with him because the provincial court punished and deported him last year for overstaying his visa," he said.

 

Aids campaigner Sommart Troy said letting Schiemann back into Thailand was unacceptable. "This man deliberately transmits HIV to others. How can you let him come back to Thailand?" Sommart said.

 

Nakhon Ratchasima tourism police Major Thanomsak Inthrabutr said police had proposed he be made persona non grata. However, Pol Colonel Sutthipong Wongpin, superintendent of the Immigration Police, said he had merely overstayed his visa and was not banned from entering the Kingdom.

Something was never right about that whole story. Now the guy shows up back in the same village???

 

Thai immigration has the authority to keep out anyone they want, right? They could even say "No HIV test, no entry." Seems he paid a hansum sum to someone
