Deputy Tourist Police Commissioner Pol Maj Gen Surachet Hakparn's investigation on Koh Tao found no evidence to support a British backpacker's claim of being drugged, raped, and robbed, after inspecting the alleged scene and gathering testimonies.
A hostel owner reportedly told police the British tourist expressed regret over an affair with a male companion, contradicting the alleged rape narrative.
Police welcome the alleged victim to return with evidence to prove her case, but also warned that those spreading fabricated information online could face computer crime charges.
