BANGKOK — A court on Friday issued an arrest warrant on charge of land encroachment against the leader of an influential Buddhist sect, who’s also accused of embezzling millions of baht.

 

Abbot Dhammachayo violated forest laws by building one of his religious facilities without a proper permit in Korat’s Khao Yai National Park, said deputy police commissioner Srivara Ransibrahmanakul. The offense is punishable by up to five years in jail.
