Senior police officers examine Sairee beach on Koh Tao in Surat Thani province late last month, the scene of an alleged rape. Pol Gen Chakthip said on Wednesday that when police officially prove the rape claim was groundless, the woman and the page administrator would be blacklisted from entering the country. Police were hunting for the administrator of the page and had already arrested several people who shared the rape claim from the page, Pol Gen Chakthip said. Given evidence from so many cameras, a culprit would have been arrested if the incident had occurred," Pol Gen Chakthip said. Pol Maj Gen Surachate Hakparn, deputy chief of tourist police, had already reported the finding to the British consul-general, who did not dispute it, Pol Gen Chakthip said.
