Federation chairman Boonyarit Nipawanit said yesterday some evidence has "got lost" en route to the NACC and other state agencies, according to his examination of the case. The evidence, which includes accounts of underage victims being lured into the sex trade in the province, implicates both state officials and police officers, he said. Mr Boonyarit also serves as an assistant district officer in Mae Hong Son's Mae Sariang district. Among the suspects are Mae Hong Son governor Suebsak Iamwicharn, who is accused of involvement in the sex ring, which is believed to have ties to human trafficking in the North. UN agencies have called for the sex-ring case to be handled in a fair and transparent way, with no interference.
