‘POUNDLAND MAFIA’ MAN PAYS FOR FAKE LEGAL LETTERS AND PORN ATTACKS FROM PAKISTAN CALL CENTRES

Bryan Flowers – the British controller of a chain of online newspapers and a sex-tourism company in Thailand has commissioned multiple porn and cyber-attacks on this site to shut it down.

The attacks over the last three weeks, were followed by DMCA – Digital Millenium Copyright Act notices – threats of defamation cases, accompanied by reams of porn, and threatening voice mails. ‘We will create sites and defame you all over the social media.’ – see end of story
The threats were made in fake legal letters in Whats App messages from Pakistan in batches of over 1000 in a matter of minutes.
Flowers, who says he is known to police as boss of the ‘Soi Six Mafia,’ but by others as the ‘Poundland Mafia’, controls the Pattaya News, Phuket Express, and Bangkok News online newspapers.
But his primary income is from the Night Wish Group, which runs some 30 bars with sex rooms in Pattaya Soi 6, a downmarket and cut-price nightlife area of Pattaya, but which has a high turnover.
It features heavily on YouTube, often when fights break out in the Soi.
The first threat was to take down this site, but the story he wanted taken down was a story headlined ‘British media mogul sues over sex trafficking allegations,’
And now, of course, this one.
League of Gentlemen
Flowers jokes about being called mafia boss
This was a news story reporting that Flowers was suing another foreigner, Adam Howell, for libel involving a YouTube video about the Night Wish Group, which described how the Night Wish company allegedly trawled provinces in Isaan for young recruits for his voracious sex business. ‘Stealing Thailand’s most precious asset – its children’.
Adam Howell, it is now known, was actually one of the ‘owners’ of the Night Wish Group, who had invested 15 million Thai baht ( (US$456,000).
The Night Wish Company was liquidated in 2017 and is now run as ‘’League of Gentlemen’ paying its foreign investors ‘dividends’ of 400,000 Thai baht a month (US$12,172) with virtual meetings on the internet.
We also reported how Flower’s wife, Punnipa, 36, had been added to those arrested during a raid on the NWG ‘Flirt bar’ in Pattaya, by the Anti-Human Trafficking Department of the Royal Thai Police in April 2023.
Her name was on the accounts of the company. Police had been tipped off by an American NGO called ‘The Exodus Road’.
Legal Costs
Later Punnipa Flowers, an English bar manager, William Bilton, also known as Reece, 31, from Barrow-in-Furness and two Thai emplyees, Jaranya Keepair, and Saifon Khanyanyiam, were charged with a number of offences relating to the trafficking a 16-year-old into the sex trade.
The initial arrests were reported in the Thai and British media, but not the Pattaya News. The arrest of Punnipa Flowers followed later but was not reported in any of the established media. The continuing court case in Bangkok has not been reported anywhere, but is believed to be close to a conclusion.
Flowers has announced he is confident of four acquittals. But, in communications shown to this site, Flowers has complained that he had to pay out 11.5 million baht (US$350,000) for ‘legal expenses’. But later in a memorandum addressed to all he suggested they thank his team from saving them all from disaster.
At the time of the arrests a spokesman for the Night Wish Group was quoted in the Daily Mail saying: “The police have confirmed that that no illegal substances were found in the bar, and no person was under 18. “We believe that the raid took place because of the inaccurate statement of one individual, who had been paid to make a false statement.”
However, Flowers has stated in a YouTube video that he gets to hear when police are going to make a raid, and he told investors that Pattaya Police had done what they were supposed to do.
The girl from Lopburi was not in the bar, but the bar had put her picture up on Facebook, as do all the Night Wish bars, and it was not long before she was interviewed and handed to the care of social services.
Adam Howell
Howell 43, is from Saanichton, British Columbia, had been persuaded to invest in the Night Wish Grop after attending meetings of ‘Foreign Business Entrepreneurs’ in Bangkok and Pattaya.
But last year he went to Pattaya police to report fraud and alleged illegal activites within the Night Wish group, some of which were highly abusive to women.
The reports were made directly to Police Colonel Nawit Theerawit, then head of Pattaya police, and Howell said he had been assured of an investigation and even congratulated on his action.
But nothing happened until Flowers brought a libel action. Meanwhile the Police Colonel has been transferred.
Howell joins a list of foreigners who have made the news after their experiences at the police station.
They include a Kyrgyzstan women, who fled to Pattaya police for help after being forced into prostitution by a Chinese gang.
She later took her own life afterwards by jumping from a Pattaya aparthotel.
More recently a German became the subject of a Deutsche Welt TV documentary after paying out a million baht to get off sex charges relating to an under-aged sex worker. He made a a video of himself putting the cash in his bag.
The under-aged girl was one of several found working in Pattaya’s Cobra bar, also run by a Brit.
As Flowers has announced he is applying for Thai citizenship it is thought ythat his recent actions may have been prompted by knowledge of an ongoing investigation into the THE NIGHTWISH FILES.
The threats
All of the threats to this site came from agents in Pakistan who had been hired by Flowers through the fiverr website in Israel. 
A complaint was made about the main picture we published of Flowers. It is used multiple times by Flowers for self promotion on his many websites showing him to be a family man, a successful business entrepreneur, SEO expert, and newspaper publisher and member of Thai Polo & Equestrian Club in Pattaya. 
Oddly the second picture he wanted to be taken down was a photo showing himself, his wife, and News Director Adam Judd, presenting gifts to police and city officials which he put up on Facebook. Adam Judd was for five years the manager of the ‘Sexy and the City Bar’ in Pattaya Soi 6. A hired take-down agent called Muhamad Zohaib.” said:
“My client wants to remove the picture that is with the police. This news is completely defaming his business.”
Facebook. Bryan Flowers, Punippa Flowers, and Adam Judd, pesenting gifts to Police Chief, Mayor, and other civic dignitaries in Pattaya.
Any copyright case would have been defended unfair ‘fair use’. No specific libel ws mentioned, nor were or any inaccuracies, but Muhammad did say he had done a lot of business with Flowers, and gave documents from Flowers who gave his address as being in the English southwest, a long way from his English home in Chapelfields, Coventry.
Bryan Flowers also runs a website called ‘Ethical-Trolling.com’ and has already carried out multiple attacks on the American based anti-human trafficking NGO called ‘The Exodus Road’ – accusing Exodus staff of ‘partying with prostitutes’ and ‘paying police’.
He created a website, which was put up in Russia. Here he wrote theat Exodus Road operated by:
“Visiting open-air beer bars looking for girls that used fake/friends’ IDs to get bar work and making them say they were forced to have sex. This isn’t rescuing anyone. Then, when unable to find trafficked girls, they try to plant 16- or 17- years olds using an older sister’s ID in unsuspecting bars to justify the charity’s existence. So, the only girls that they are rescuing are girls that they are planting themselves to continue collecting donations from unsuspecting good people.”
Howell has entered a not guilty plea to libel at Pattaya Court. Due to ‘other forces which may be at play’, he is unsure of the Thai justice system. on his personal blog Flowers has stated: “He’s going to jail for two years.”
A spokesman for the Exodus Road said: “The Exodus Road categorically denies paying any bribes to law enforcement or to staff and associates of establishments in Pattaya, Thailand, or elsewhere.
“Furthermore, we firmly reject any allegations that our investigators engaged in sexual activities with sex workers or victims of human trafficking. Our investigations are confined to cases where human trafficking is already occurring, and our practices are designed to wholly avoid any risk of enticement or entrapment.
We uphold the highest ethical standards in our work to protect vulnerable individuals. We are also aware that The Exodus Road has been the target of coordinated social media and website attacks from various bad actors, which we have identified as being behind some of the recent defamatory content.

comment:
From Ethical-Trolling.com
Why Is it So Expensive?
We have a large amount of skills, accounts, blogs, domains, dedicated IP’s and we employ only people we trust. It’s time consuming to go after a company or individual. The bigger the company, the more the resources we need to fight back. Also what we are doing isn’t technically legal.
We have connections all over Asia/Russia that are a vital part of some of our work.
Muhammad from the Punjab said he did a lot of business for Flowers. Sounds like Ethical Trolling is farming all its work out to Fiverr and tripling the price.
