The abbot of Bang Klaan temple reported 17 more suspects involved in the recent violent intrusion at his temple in Phichit province. The offenders are comprised of 14 locals and three non-affiliated monks. The police have used CCTV footage to identify the culprits who caused several injuries to the temple’s staff and lay supporters.

 

The abbot, Pissut Warakan, granted authority to the 71 year old Phan Punpeng, who serves as the temple’s lay representative, to report the case to Police Major Siroj Petchtoh, the investigating officer at the Pho Thale police station. The 17 suspects are thought to have aided the black-garbed assailants in orchestrating the aggressive intrusion at the temple on April 6.

 

Phan stated that the attackers included 14 laypeople and three monks with no affiliation with the Bang Klaan temple. According to CCTV footage, they unlawfully took control of the temple both during daytime and nighttime hours. The group also detained and assaulted temple workers, committee members, and lay representatives. They also destroyed temple property and blatantly defied lawful orders, reported KhaoSod.

Still not clear why they did all that. Didn't they give a reason?
