A transgender OnlyFans model has been arrested in Chachoengsao, Thailand, on charges of luring minors into producing child sexual exploitation material. The man, identified in press only as Patipat, earned a substantial income from the abuse material, and was detained by officers from the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Division on July 1.
According to a warrant issued by the criminal court on July 1, Patipat had deceived a 17 year-old teenager into creating pornographic content which he then shared to his OnlyFans account. Leading up to the arrest, police had been closely monitoring social media accounts suspected of the distribution of child pornography. During the investigation, authorities discovered Patipat’s X (formerly Twitter) account, which boasted over 130,000 followers at the time.
The X account led investigators to Patipat’s OnlyFans account, where he had published over 100 videos depicting explicit sexual activities. News outlet Thaiger reports that Patipat “aggressively promoted” his pornography and charged 350 baht (approx. $10 USD) for an OnlyFans subscription, and 99 baht (approx. $3 USD) for a subscription to his media on X.
Police discovered that several videos sold by Patipat were of minors participating in sexual acts. Some of the victims were coerced into making pornography in public places, such as forests, fields, and boxing rings.
During police interrogation, Patipat confessed to sexually exploiting children in order to boost his follower count. He told law enforcement he had created his social media profiles six months prior as “an easy way to earn an average monthly income of 100,000 baht (approx. $2,754 USD).”
Patipat claimed the competition among pornography creators on OnlyFans forced him to resort to producing child pornography.
Patipat faces charges of human trafficking for exploiting minors through the production and distribution of child pornography, importing obscene content into computer systems for commercial purposes, and child abduction.
While limited identifying information has been released by the Thai press, Reduxx has located social media accounts which appear to belong to the pornographer arrested, using his location and clothing as verification.
Patipat Naknoi of Chachoengsao has been posting to social media about his “love” for children and creating pornographic images of himself. Since the publicized arrest, the social media accounts of Naknoi have become inactive.
Additionally, an April 2018 post to Naknoi’s Facebook account depicts him holding a document verifying his registration for military conscription. In Thailand, all males must register for possible military service from the age of 21, with the process beginning in the month of April. Naknoi turned 21 in February 2018.
Naknoi has also shared sexualized images of himself in a boxing ring, similar to the accused Patipat’s preferred location for making pornographic content. Using filters and editing apps, Naknoi frequently distorted his appearance to make him seem younger, thinner, and more feminine. As a result, his appearance varied wildly across his many photos and videos.
The man has referred to himself as “kathoey” (กะเทย), a Thai term referring to a male transvestite or transsexual.
A June 2021 post celebrates the four-year anniversary of Naknoi’s breast implants, having undergone the surgery in 2017. At the time, he shared a photo of his bandaged and swollen chest. When one commenter asked him what had happened, Naknoi replied, “I’m making milk.”
In another response, Naknoi reveals that he had the procedure performed by Dr. Thep Vejvisith, a cosmetic surgeon known to be popular among men colloquially known as Thai “ladyboys.”
Naknoi’s implants feature prominently across his social media profiles, having even named his TikTok account @Pumpui600cc, a reference to the size of his breast implants. But the recent photo of Naknoi being arrested indicates he has either gained a substantial amount of weight, was fabricating his breast size using prosthetics, or perhaps had the implants removed.
Naknoi is not the first “ladyboy” to be arrested in Thailand in connection to the sexual exploitation of children.
As previously reported by Reduxx in 2022, a Thai man who self-identified as transgender was arrested at a hotel in Phuket for allegedly arranging a child trafficking scheme.
Supalak Chumphan, 37, was wanted by local police for the exploitation of children via the sex trafficking of mostly girls under the age of 18. Chumphan offered the children for sale on Twitter, reportedly using the name “Pepsi” on his account to find potential buyers before contacting johns on the mobile application Line.
