Thailand Yuttana Kodsap, 31, was sentenced to 374 years in prison by the Phang Nga provincial court on charges of child abuse and video recording on the internet.

The court in Phang Nga province, southern Thailand, declared the sentence and ordered Yuttana to pay 800,000 baht ($ 26,000) for each of the five victims, according to records provided to Reuters on October 17. The lawyers said this was a move to deter other similar offenders.

According to the indictment, Yuttana lured children 7-12 years old into the home to play games so that he sexually abused them, filmed and sold videos on a messaging app.

This is the second case of human trafficking sentenced to over 300 years in prison in Thailand. Last year, the country's criminal court sentenced 309 years to three men for sex trafficking for pornography, although the maximum jail term prescribed by Thai law is 50 years.

Thailand has made significant efforts to combat human trafficking, according to the US human trafficking report. Since January, the country's court has sentenced to 170 defendants for human trafficking, including 74 cases sentenced to over 10 years in prison.

Long-term sentences can be an effective deterrent to dangerous traffickers, along with a fine to compensate the victim, Archana Kotecha, director of Asia and standing The head of the legal division of the charity charity Liberty Shared Liberty Shared, said.

On October 16, 337 suspects related to a child pornography "Welcome to Video" website were arrested and prosecuted in many countries, according to the British National Crime Agency. 23 young victims were also rescued in the US, Spain and England.
