A monk in Kratie province was defrocked and arrested on Monday after allegations surfaced that he raped a minor near his pagoda in Tamao commune.

According to a report from Prek Prasap district police, 20-year-old Nam Bun Nang was defrocked after the family of a 14-year-old girl filed a complaint alleging that he had raped her at their home on Sunday, while all of her relatives were out.

“He came out from the pagoda wearing a simple suit and entered the victim’s house near the pagoda to rape the girl,” the report says. “One day later, the family filed a complaint to police. We arrested him immediately after he was defrocked.”

Why is "raped girl" in quotes. Does this suggest something other than rape occurred?

So like this is something new?

Monks,priests they're all at it.This is what unfortunately happens when you subdue what is natural.

Must be boring being a Monk if your not gay.

Putting on an orange robe...or the frock of a priest...does not subdue the human need and urge to copulate...

How about "expelling" him from this planet as well?

Ok, expelled, defrocked. Now he can wear normal clothes one assumes.

After arrest was he charged with rape and detained? Shoulda!!

Hope the penalty is harsher for raping I minor and hope is served a jail term where inside jail he can first hand experience what's it's like to be raped. And it has become really common now a days in Thailand for monks to rape or involve themselves into illicit acts wearing the orange suit
