snoop1130 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 The mysterious death of a 57 year old monk in a temple in Ang Thong province sparked a police investigation. The body was found in a monk’s hut, lying on the floor surrounded by a foul smell, with blood and yellow liquid on the ground. A lottery ticket for the October 1 draw was discovered in the hut, which drew the attention of local villagers keen to note down the number. The police, along with medical staff from Wiset Chai Chan Hospital and rescue volunteers from Ang Thong, were called to Wat Muang, Hua Ta Phan subdistrict, Wiset Chai Chan district, Ang Thong province. The deceased monk, named Samchai, had been unseen for several days, raising suspicions and concerns among the temple staff. Upon inspection, the monk’s body was found in a decomposed state, with wounds on the back of the head. The monk is believed to have been dead for at least three to four days.

Moral here seems to be monks are generally a lazy lot who tend to sleep in when they want to and if they are not seen it assumed they are still sleeping ! 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiSePuede419 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Pretty good Thai movie about a murder at a temple which contains quite a few topics Thai people don't like to acknowledge. ???? https://www.thelonerider.com/2018/sep/mindfulness_movie/mindfulness_movie.shtml 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
