The man’s lawyer, Thanadej Srilamun, said his client would be willing to negotiate with complainants to settle the matter. Thanadej was speaking after he accompanied the doctor, who also serves as the director of a privately-run hospital in Nakhon Ratchasima province, to the Sung Noen Police Station to acknowledge the charge of sexual abuse. “There’s ground to believe he committed the violation,” said the case investigator, Pol Lt Colonel Trakarn SaksrikromThe doctor went to the police station wearing sunglasses and refused to speak to waiting reporters. Thanadej said the doctor believed the complainants might have misunderstood his intentions because a check-up generally required some physical contact. According to Thanadej, complainants had earlier demanded Bt50,000 compensation each but the doctor believed the figure requested was too high.
