Thaiwrath Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 The other day it was the final ultimatum, midnight. Now he gets another extension until December 10th ! Farcical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerojero Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 100's to arrest one guy. Need we say it? Ok, I will.... Unbelievable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NongKhaiKid Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 24 hour standby for up to 7 companies of police. These will be definitely count as amongst The Longest Day(s). Another deadline almost certainly will be needed as Dec 10 is both a Saturday and a Public Holiday so there will be no one around to deal with any surrender. Maybe he can arrange to give himself up on the day of the next General Election ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thechook Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Probably as meaningful as all the other deadlines. You are the police for Christ sake and he is the fugitive, just go and drag his sorry arse in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Here you a high ranking abbot with millions of devotees and followers worshiping the ground he walks on, a person that many more millions listen to his teaching as the gospel truth and the light of wisdom, BUT YET, he's acting like a fugitive criminal, defying and snubbing the authorities, playing hide and seek, instead to front up and deal wit the situation, makes you think, dose this person really deserves to be in the status people look up to him to be?....

IamNoone88 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Yesterday midnight was one of the many deadlines already set and passed and he is still free and well protected. This guy will not surrender and the authorities are showing spectacular failings in their ability to find, arrest and bring to justice a person who clearly believes he is above the law.

Thailand is not China. In China if you have followers and a movement that is not sanctioned and under the auspices of the Communist Party, you are toast. You will be crushed. In Thailand the administration is reluctant to move against powerful groups because overnight it creates an opposition movement. So the Thai model is to work from the outside in (harry, harrass and inconvenience the low level supporters, the grassroots and slowly work up) and not to slice off the head until the grassroots are neutralised. That is what we are seeing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farcanell Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Historically, " church's" have always provided sanctuary. historically, a lot of the applicants for sanctuary, dress up as women and escape. i wonder were this bloke will turn up next, because I doubt he will be there come 10 December.

slapout Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 This monk seems to be able to go off the radar at will so sending police to capture him may be a waste of personel. Good trained attack dogs , following blood hounds (with proper source of bait) should bring out the rabbit in him. Let him try horse trading with them or ask them for bail. the reward system used in the past was said to be successful, maybe a portion of siezed assets sold could induce someone to find and turn him over to the proper authorties.
