The alleged victim recalled: “20 days later, I paid my friend in Samui to report [Conor] to the police, and paid the police to find him and [for my friend to be] my witness.”
Chakkaphat exercised his right to have a friend representing him in the investigation, as Conor was located in Koh Samui, 1,900 kilometers away from his Nakhonphanom home.
A complaint filed with the Royal Thai police in the Surat Thani province, which Chakkaphat shared on hisInstagram pageon Saturday (June 15), confirms that the dog breeder had sold a “female blue breed” who was two months old to Conor back in April.

Conor has denied every single allegation made against him, tellingBored Panda: “It’s all false and let the government speak for themselves if this is true.”
Bored Pandareached out to the British Embassy in Bangkok, Thailand, on Tuesday (June 18) but didn’t receive insightful information regarding Conor’s case.
The former prisoner further told us that he could “prove” that all allegations made against him were false with “bank statements.”

As for Chakkaphat, he is still willing to sell dogs to foreigners, but he will now require the full payment upfront.
“I saw those people congratulating and encouraging the bad people and chatting to criticize me a lot,” the Thai man said.
