Bangkok, April 15 (CNA) A Thai court will hold a hearing on April 18 on a case in which a female Taiwanese tourist has accused a masseur of sexually assaulting her while she was getting a massage in Bangkok on Thursday.

The criminal court will hold an investigative session on Wednesday to help inquiry officials decide whether or not to move forward with the case.

Legal experts said there was the possibility that more court sessions might have to be held before a decision is made on whether to prosecute the suspect.

Earlier Sunday, Royal Thai Police Commissioner-General Chakthip Chaijinda demanded that the truth be uncovered, and he ordered the criminal and tourism police to thoroughly investigate the case and find out what happened as soon as possible.    [FULL  STORY]
