CityNews – A video of a man masturbating while driving a motorbike in Warorot Market has gone viral, sparking public disgust but no formal investigation…yet.
UPDATE: Police arrest a man in connection with the offence.
The video was posted on December 11 by Facebook user named Tanakorn Chamwong, along with a comment that warned people of people sexually exposing themselves before joking that his home must not have internet.
The video clearly shows a middle aged male driving his bike with one hand while self pleasuring himself with another hand.
UPDATE: Police have tracked down the man in the video and arrested him under indecent exposure charges. He was identified as 48 year old Buncha Nunti, an electrician from San Sai. He told police that he was drunk and saw a woman riding the songtaew and became aroused. He told police that he was just drunk and does not suffer from mental illness, despite this not being the first time he has masturbated on his bike after seeing a woman he likes. This is the first time he has been caught.
Police charged him with indecent exposure and Buncha was fined 500 baht and left off with a warning. Police did not charge him with drink driving despite the man admitting to driving drunk in his statement.
