Police in Surat Thani apprehended a monk, acting as an abbot of a renowned temple, for indecent acts against six young boys. During their search, they discovered sex enhancement drugs in his room. The monk confessed before being charged with multiple offences.

 

At 12.30am yesterday, November 20, Police Colonel Paisan Sangthep, Deputy Commander of Surat Thani Provincial Police, alongside Police Colonel Pornnarong Kanorachai and a team from Phrasaeng Police Station, arrested 44 year old Chaturaphat. He was the head of a temple in Phrasaeng district, Surat Thani.

 

Community leaders had previously alerted the police about his inappropriate behaviour towards young novice monks and boys aged between 11 and 13, revealed Pol. Col. Pornnarong.

 

“Yesterday evening community leaders informed us of Chaturaphat’s improper sexual conduct. We immediately dispatched officers alongside community leaders to investigate the claims.”

 

 

Upon investigation, Chaturaphat confessed to having engaged in indecent acts with the young boys from April to October of this year. He admitted to inviting the boys and novice monks to massage him in his quarters, where the incidents occurred. Consequently, he was voluntarily defrocked at Samphan Temple in Phrasaeng district. The police then conducted a thorough search of his quarters.

 

The search revealed two sachets of a particular brand of sex enhancement supplements and four sachets of sex enhancement coffee placed on the bedside table in his room. These items were seized as evidence. Chaturaphat was subsequently handed over to investigators at Phrasaeng Police Station to face charges, reported KhaoSod.

 

The charges include committing indecent acts with children under the age of 13, whether or not the child consents, and taking a child under 15 away from their parents or guardians for indecent purposes. Additional charges comprise committing indecent acts with a child under 13 who is under his care and taking a child under 15 for indecent purposes, irrespective of consent.

Not only Rome. Anywhere where there are religious leaders assaulting children.

"Holy scandal: Temple abbot caught in unholy acts with young boys"

Terrible incident. Trauma for the boys.

However, what would be "holy" acts? Never heard this before?
