Loan Shark Charged with Three Serious Counts for Forcing Debtor to Record Explicit Videos and Coerce Sexual Acts
A 34-year-old loan shark in Nonthaburi Province has been charged with sexual assault, extortion, and illegal lending after allegedly forcing a borrower to record explicit videos and perform sexual acts when she fell behind on payments.
A loan shark identified as Mr. Tao, age 34, has been charged with three serious counts following complaints from a 25-year-old victim. The victim, represented by Akekapon Luangprasert from the "Sanaemai Tongrod" social media page, filed a report with Rattanathibeth Police Station in Nonthaburi Province on May 4th. According to the complaint, the suspect coerced the woman to record explicit videos during the loan process and forced her into sexual acts after she missed four days of interest payments as a penalty. The suspect allegedly threatened to post the images and videos online if she refused to cooperate. Police questioned Mr. Tao for over an hour before conducting a search of his residence in Muang District, Nonthaburi Province, to gather evidence. When confronted by reporters during the search, the suspect flatly denied all allegations, claiming the entire story was false. He refused to provide any statement beyond denying the accusations. Police are preparing to file three charges: lending money at rates exceeding legal limits, sexual assault, and extortion through threats. The case will proceed according to the law.
