A Buddhist monk was stabbed and injured after he quarrelled with a teenager aboard a train early on Wednesday while he was travelling from Lop Buri to Bangkok.
 

The attack happened at a railway station on Kilometre marker No 11 on Khamphaeng Phet 6 road in Bangkok’s Chatuchak district at 5am.

 

The monk was taken to the Ratchawithi Hospital by a policeman from the Bang Sue police station after a taxi motorcyclist took him to the police station to file a complaint.

 

Pol Senior Sgt-Major Uthit Pomsuwan said he rushed the monk to the hospital on his motorcycle after he saw him bleeding.

 

The monk told police that he travelled from Lop Buri to collect alms in Bangkok and had a verbal dispute with a young man. When the monk got off the train at the station, the young man followed him, then stabbed him once and fled the scene.

Sad story indeed.

[Expatwannabee]

Whilst I'm not prepared to speculate regarding the how and why of the situation, it does not say much for the monks equanimity and enlightenment if he gets into bad tempered exchanges / quarrels with a youth.

we all no there are Monks that should not be Monks.

There are many who are better men then anyone here criticizing everyone and everything that they even remotely come near.

[Sir Dude]

You are lost when you end up stabbing a monk because you have a hissy-fit over a verbal exchange. Fragile, hair-trigger males here...pathetic.

[Bangkokazy]

There is no excuse to knife stab a monk.

Then he is so low that he steals from his mother too.

Such people, has no right to live.
