Pratumnak Hill draws attention

[reader]

From Pattaya One

 

Recent reports from locals have promoted police to investigate an area in South Pattaya in which they believe is being used by gay men as a midnight sex den.

 

Several reports have been made regarding the area, which is located up on Pratumnak Hill, but also know as Sor Tor Lor. Police finally decided to act once pictures started appearing online showing lots of used condoms scattered all over the floor and in the bushes.

 

One comment from the facebook post read: “What a mess. This is Pratumnak Hill tourist area, Pattaya. It has become an outdoor sex location for gays at night”.

 

The area is hugely popular with many locals and tourists because of the nice views it offers over Pattaya, but also for it’s exercise facilities. Joggers and walkers looking to keep fit can often be found in and around the area and there are also a few weigh stations too.

 

Recently however, there seems to be an increasing number of homosexual men appearing in the area, especially at night. Many locals turned a blind eye at first, thinking that they had come to exercise just like everyone else however, it is now clear for all to see that they were coming for a slightly different form of exercise.

I think that is what surprised me most about the story LOL

I can confirm from my last visits around 2014 that there is cruising day and night, and plenty of used condoms and sachets of lube scattered around. Ample amounts of general waste as well. And the public toilets vandalized.

 

Even thought I haven't participated for about 2 years, would make me sad to see it go.

Asked a friend: Sor Tor Lor = สถานีวิทยุโทรทัศน์ ของทหารเรือ = Navy radio station.

Excerpts from Pattaya One

 

Calls have been made to clear up a notorious area of Pattaya after a man tried to rape a 14 year old girl near some toilets.

 

The area in question is beneath the overpass leading to Bali Hai port at the foot of Pratumnak Hill.

 

Yesterday police received a frantic call from an 18 year old woman who had been waiting for her 14 year old sister outside some toilets.

 

A man produced what she thought was a knife and threatened her. She ran off to alert people nearby while the man – aged about 30 – broke down the door of the toilets and threatened the 14 year old inside ordering her to remove her clothing.

But she fought back and screamed causing the man to flee while police were alerted.

 

After a manhunt in the Pratumnak Hill area the man was found in some undergrowth sniffing glue.

 

He was named as Burapha Suchart, 32, who described himself as a trader in second hand goods. He said he did not use a knife – it was a stick covered in a cloth made to look like a weapon.
