time of the raid.
Robert Konstantin Tschopp
has been arrested and charged with molesting underage boys and
possessing child pornography.
Anti-Human Traffic and Child Abuse Center Director
Parisorn Noja, who accompanied police on the raid, accused the former
Pattaya beer bar owner of luring young boys to his home where he paid
them 200-300 baht for sexual services. He also alleged the Swiss
national would have them pose for pornographic photos and videos. A
number of such pictures and movies were found in Tschopp’s home.
The suspect is also accused of pimping out underage children for
friends.
Tschopp denied all charges, claiming the children simply came to his
house to swim in his pool.
