snoop1130 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Mystery of missing coffins in Buri Ram By The Nation An elderly man in Buri Ram has pleaded with thieves to stop stealing his coffins, after four caskets earmarked for donation mysteriously went missing last month. Pichai Sawasdee, 63, said he reckons the coffins may have been stolen either to perform black magic or because people were too stingy to pay for one. But then the former policeman said new coffins would hardly be effective in black magic, as practitioners normally use pieces of wood from used coffins for their rituals. The coffins, which had been bought through donations, were kept in an open area at a rescue foundation in Buri Ram’s Muang district. People requiring a free coffin have to first register their request with a local temple, before they can pick it at the foundation once they have been granted permission by the monks.

What if:- The money for the donated coffins wasn't used to buy coffins.................. What if:- The coffins weren't there in the first place? No wonder they would be missing........ But this is conjecture - people don't do that sort of thing, do they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
