British man accused of the sale and production of pornographic material and sex toys has been arrested by Pattaya Immigration Officers.

British man accused of the sale and production of pornographic material and sex toys has been arrested by Pattaya Immigration Officers. Officers conducted a raid of the Boutique Sexy Store located on Pattaya Third Road on Tuesday Afternoon and detained Mr. Ian Keith Hoskin aged 61 from England, the reported owner of the business. Previously an undercover foreign Immigration Volunteer purchased items from the shop which are deemed illegal here in Thailand and this provided Immigration Officers with enough evidence to conduct the raid. Inside the shop officers found plastic and silicon sex toys including fake penises. Mr. Hoskin led Police to a manufacturing facility located in Soi 5 off the Naklua Road where items were being manufactured, mostly for export to foreign countries. Originally Police were made aware of the operation through their website which was selling many of the locally produced items. Mr. Hoskin who set-up the business 6 years ago after retiring from his job in UK, claimed he was unaware that he was breaking any laws. He was taken to the Immigration center in Jomtien where further enquiries are underway. We are not aware that he has been formally charged with any offence at this time.
