Acting on an arrest warrant from 2013, officers from the Police Region 2 Child and Women Protection Unit arrested a 42 year old Russian on Monday Night, who has been tracked by the unit for 3 years following allegations he had sexually assaulted boys under the age of 15 on numerous occasions.

Officers were having trouble locating the man as he would often move residence on a regular basis, in an effort to elude capture, according to Police. Police caught up with Mr. Anton Protas at the Marika Residence in Soi 4 off the North Pattaya Road on Monday at a rented apartment. Inside the apartment were children’s toys, CD’s and USB Flash Drives which are currently being analyzed to see if they contain any illegal content relating to the allegations detailed in arrest warrant number 779/2556 dated 18th December 2013 and issued by the Pattaya Provincial Court.

After his arrest the suspect was taken back to a house at the Siam Royal View Estate in Soi Kaotalo where items including gels and condoms were seized and taken into evidence.

Police claim they have strong evidence against the suspect who is alleged to have caused the underage victims physical harm prior to the sexual assaults. Despite this he vehemently denies the allegations detailed in the arrest warrant. Mr. Protas will appear in Court in due course.
