A 19-year-old transvestite has been arrested and fined for putting on a lewd show during the Songkran celebrations in Ayutthaya.
Sarawut Suparb reported to Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya police to answer a charge of indecent exposure yesterday.
He was accused of dancing provocatively in front of a crowd of Songkran revellers and taking his top off, revealing his breasts, in downtown Ayutthaya on Friday.
Chainarong Somproh, chief of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya police, said police could not arrest Mr Sarawut on Friday because he had been in hiding.
The police took up the matter after receiving complaints from residents.
Mr Sarawut said he and 10 other transvestite friends had gone out to celebrate Songkran in the city centre.
He had climbed atop a large loudspeaker on a vehicle and began to dance.
He later took off his top at his friends' encouragement. He apologised for his behaviour.
Footage of his bare-breasted dance sparked a public outcry after it spread through various social networks.
Mr Sarawut was fined 500 baht by police and released.
