FOREIGN SEX BAR OWNERS CLASH IN THAI COURT
BRITISH PIMP LOSES PUBLIC LIBEL CASE OVER SEX TRAFFICKING.
BUT WINS ‘THIRD PARTY’ LIBEL CASE IN BITTER FEUD WITH INVESTOR.
A GRIMY TALE OF BRITS IN THAILAND’S TOURISM SEX INDUSTRY
Pattaya, 27 August 2025
A Canadian investor in a British run sex-bar operation in the Thai resort of Pattaya was acquitted of public libel at Pattaya Criminal Court today over allegations of sex trafficking and abuse of minors in the country’s sex trade.
The ruling came after the British sex bar boss, who owns some 30 plus bar-brothels in the resort, offered the defendant a million baht (US$30,860) if he would apologise for three consecutive months on social media.
The judge ruled that the defendant could not be made to apologise. And Canadian Adam Howell rejected the proposal.
But Howell was convicted on a minor charge of third party libel after showing a friend of Briton Bryan Flowers, a video he had privately made describing Flower’s alleged sex trafficking operation.
Earlier this year two Thai cashiers and British bar manager William Hilton, from Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria of Bryan Flowers’ were jailed for 21 years at Bangkok Criminal Court for human trafficking and sex trafficking a minor within Flower’s Night Wish Group.

Canadian Adam Howell, 43, said he was pleased with the first result and would be appealing the guilty verdict on the second charge for which was fined 18,000 Thai baht (US$550) and given a six month suspended sentence.
“Given the fact that my first meeting I had with my legal team was on the day the case started after my first lawyer threw away my true defence, it’s a good result,” he said.
Howell claims he has been defrauded out of some US$450,000 which he had been persuaded to invest Flower’s Night Wish Group. His story is that after becoming a co-owner with no powers he realised that the Night Wish Group was not what Flowers pretended it to be.
He had been recruited as an investor while working online in Thailand and Flowers had impressed him as a businessman taking him to weekly to meetings of local businessmen which is now calles Bangkok Entrepreneurs, Angel Investors and Wantrepreneurs’
He had duly invested the US$450,000 and was then persuaded to invest a further 100,000 Euros in a cryptocurrency venture, which turned out to be scam carried out by the Night Wish Group’s second in command, Australian Scott Schulz.
Scott Schulz, behind the New Dawn Fund crypto scam blocked by he Ausyralian Securities and Investment Commission, scammed Howell in the MDX crypto offering, on the business card for Lendefi – which Howell exposed as a scam.
When he tried to put warnings out on the net about a new scam in the offing, he was warned off by Flowers. But, after he publicly exposed Schulz’s crypto-scam, Flowers blocked his monthly dividends, leaving him penniless during Covid 19.
Punnipa Flowers
He had unwittingly joined a criminal orgnisation, a fact confirmed when Flower’s wife Punnipa was convicted and jailed for three years for running a clandestine unregistered business, but was the only one of the four acquitted of the trafficking charges at Bangkok Criminal Court in July.
The Night Wish Bar was in the hands of a Thai nominee (Punnipa’s brother) but police found that records showed all cash went to her.
Howell began his own investigation, collecting evidence which resulted in him making an emotional YouTube video accusing the British boss Bryan Flowers of running a sex-trafficking organisation ‘stealing the country’s most precious asset – its children.’
His actions unravelled when he told a close friend of Flowers what he believed Flowers was doing, some of what he had found out, and gave him a link to the video.
This friend Nick Dean from Stoke-on-Trent, UK, a Vlogger, who owned five sex bars and was in several other business ventures with Flowers. Dean promptly went to Flowers to tell him what Howell was up to.
Libel Under Section 328
The first charge of public defamation under Section 328 of the Penal Code which was dismissed, related to claims that he publicly posted the video on YouTube. These claims were made by Flowers, his wife and two witnesses, the Night Wish Group’s Brazilian photographer Fernando Bauab, and Nick Dean himself.
They had all testified, seemingly rehearsed, that ‘many people’ or ‘lots of people’, whom they did not name, had contacted them to say they had been shocked and horrified at seeing the video on YouTube.
But the prosecution did not realise that their own documentary evidence showed that the YouTube was ‘unlisted’ which meant it was not visible on site without the secret URL, and could not be found in a search.
And although it showed the video had had over 10,000 views, very few were human. Most were bots, paid for ‘views’ coming from Russia.
Evidence Tampering Exposed in Bryan Flowers Defamation Case Adam Howell on video
Some 8000 of these ‘paid for’ Russian views alone were recorded the day Flowers and Howell had a shouting confrontation at Pattaya Police station where he had made fraud complaints.
And YouTube’s own forensics showed that these ‘views’ lasted only the first seven seconds or under during which there was no defamation. Further Flowers himself had put the video up on several blog sites resulting in the only a few genuine views.
The judge ordered a recess to give an opportunity to Flowers to come to an agreement with Howell.
Flowers then offered Howell one million baht if he would make an apology, that the author of this website also make an apology, and that Howell withdraw any fraud charges against him. But the judge told him that he could not make those conditions. Howell also refused those terms.
Libel Under Section 326
The charge of defamation under Section 326 which Howell lost related to a Facebook Messenger conversation with Nick Dean, when Howell provided him with the secret link to the video. Thus the court ruled Howell had defamed one sex bar owner to another.
Howell claimed that he had made the video and given it to police to act on. He never made it public. He provided the link to Dean, whom he considered to be a go-between with Flowers, who had blocked him on social media. He wanted to know whose side Dean was on.
Asked by the judge how he knew the Night Wish Group was a sex trafficking organisation, he said: “Flowers tried to sell me a virgin.”

Fernando Bauab
“I refused but the fourth witness accepted the offer,” he added, pointing at Fernando Bauab.
He also claimed Flowers offered him a 17-year-old he was putting to work in his bars.
The feud has exposed the grimy underbelly of the foreign sex trade in Thailand a large part of which is controlled by Brits in Pattaya and Bangkok with the co-operation of local police. The Night Wish Group virtually controls Pattaya Soi 6. This is a street where Flowers has more than 29 of his over 30+ sex bars and is regarded as the downmarket end of Pattaya’s nightlife. His bars rent out Thai sex workers recruited as ‘cashiers’ from the provinces either by the hours in rooms above the bars, or by the day.
Flowers, an electrician, from Coventry, England, also known as ‘Professor Monger’, and the creator of the sex tourism websites Jizzflicker ** and Belts of Mongering, had prior to the judgment launched a civil case claiming 4.5 million baht (US$139,000) damages.
Flirt Bar Raid 2023
In July when William Bilton, 31, from Barrow-in-Furness, and two Thai cashiers, were jailed at Bangkok Criminal Court for 21 years, British managers were cleared from the bars. Not only were they working illegally, they had also been in Thailand on education vias., many issued by the Rage Fight Academy in Pattaya – this was a Thai Kick Boxing School, owned by Bryan Flowers through Thai nominees.

The following is taken from a statement issued by Bryan Flowers to his foreign co-owners or investors in late December 23 after the human trafficking arrests and referring back to the troubles he had with Paypal and Facebook who both blocked him from taking money in tips for sex workers on webcams and advertising Thai women on FB. In seperate emails he described the major part of legal costs as payments to ‘corrupt police’.
