Young Entrepreneur Files Complaint Against Famous Fortune Teller Accused of Sexual Assault Under Guise of Spiritual Healing
A 32-year-old man from Chiang Mai has filed sexual assault charges against a fortune teller who claimed to cure his migraines through spiritual healing rituals at a meditation compound.
At 3:20 p.m. on May 7, 2025, Ekapop Luangprasert, founder of the 'Sai Mai Tong Rot' Facebook page, accompanied a 32-year-old businessman identified as 'A' to the Crime Suppression Division to file charges against a famous fortune teller for sexual assault during a supposed karma-cleansing treatment.
The victim explained that he suffered from chronic migraines that caused severe distress. After seeking treatment at numerous public and private hospitals without relief, his mother discovered the fortune teller's online videos claiming to cure karmic diseases. They traveled from Chiang Mai to the fortune teller's compound, which resembled a meditation center.
Upon arrival, the fortune teller questioned the victim about his condition, then claimed he had accumulated significant bad karma and would be treated last for the day. The fortune teller separated the victim from his mother, leading him to a locked private room. Citing ancient Brahmin-Shiva texts, the fortune teller ordered him to remove his pants for a 'karma check,' then instructed him to touch three specific points on the fortune teller's body twice each—both thighs and genitals.
The victim stated the fortune teller then had him move to a corner of the room and engage in sexual acts, claiming it was part of the treatment. The fortune teller subsequently sat between the victim's legs, performed obscene rituals, showed him pornographic material on a phone, and performed oral sex. The victim secretly recorded a video as evidence.
When asked why he didn't flee, the victim cited fear for his mother's safety given the large compound and uncertainty about other disciples or weapons present. He noted he came seeking healing after medical treatment failed and didn't know the fortune teller would use such methods.
After returning to Chiang Mai, the victim experienced severe psychological distress and suicidal thoughts. He refuses any settlement and will pursue the case fully to protect other potential victims. The Crime Suppression Division confirmed preliminary coordination with Unit 4 to investigate and file charges based on evidence.
