Police and DSI mull joint operation to search Wat Dhammakaya

 

Police and officials of the Department of Special Investigation held a closed-door meeting to discuss a joint operation to search the Wat Dhammakaya to arrest Phra Dhammachayo, former abbot of the temple.

 

The meeting was headed by Pol Gen Srivara Rangseepromnakul, deputy chief of the Royal Thai Police, and Pol Col Paisit Wongmuang, DSI chief.

 

After the meeting, Pol Gen Srivara told the media that the police were 80 percent sure that the embattled monk is still hiding in the temple although no one has seen him for quite some time.

 

However, the deputy police chief said that arresting Dhammachayo is not much a problem, but the real problem is how to prevent damage which may result from the search operation.

Joint mulling, why don't they invite Paul McCartney to advise as he was very successful with a Mull.

 

So the latest excuse that the only problem is preventing damage just adds to successfully keeping the issue on the back burner, AGAIN !

[PatOngo]

Why don't they just file this in the Beyond Our Ability  file!

[Somtamnication]

Their public planning of this fiasco is a good example of "Thainess".

[Raymonddiaz]

small fish can't catch big one. The monk is bigger than PM A 44.

[ezzra]

Most likely that some of the ' Müllers " in the room are followers of the abbot

or related to someone who is, so less mulling and more action is the best way

to go about it....

"...arresting Dhammachayo is not much a problem, but the real problem is how to prevent damage which may result from the search operation..."

 

Prevent damage to their credibility (from another failed attempt), more likely. 

 

These "mugs" would go well alongside my coffee cup !!!

Police and dsi are mulling over joint operation 

Silly buggers cannot even organise a piss up in a brewery.

[NanLaew]

Mullers or mullets? That is the question.

[canuckamuck]

I imagine it is going like this. They are conversing with temple officials to agree upon a date and time for the search, and probably which areas they will be allowed to search. Of course they promise not to report anything suspicious.

[Dexlowe]

What is a police general doing discussing law enforcement tactics with a police colonel as if they were of the same rank? Uppidy colonel. This is a serious face issue.

[Get Real]

As I think, it doesn´t matter how many people, organizations or authorities work together. If everyone working together are doing nothing. The result will still be nothing.

[PatOngo]

Obviously smoking too much of what they mull!

[akirasan]

There's always the benny hill theme playing in my head when I read stories about Dhammachayo

[tompelli]

Mulling is a great word, makes it sound like they are actually doing something .

Agreed, but nobody knows just how much of a stock of "Kool-Aid" and potassium cyanide there is in the Wat. If there are thousands of sheep in the pen, many will die. That's not good for Thailand's face.

Don't forget to look behind the donations box.

[harada]

OK we need to mull this over for another couple of months until all the necessary documents have been shredded and assets have been relocated and then we'll go in hard. 

[Caveat Emptor]

Sometime to come this is going to make a great television mini-series but not made locally of course and it will be banned here.

[nikmar]

Only mulling iver it today. Next week theyre going to do a bit of thinking about it before moving on to some light concentration. And on and on and on.

I've said it before and I"ll say it again: it is abundantly clear now that the ONLY people who can EASILY overthrow a filthy, corrupt and ever more tyrannical 'government' (not in Thailand, of course) is the monkhood.

They are untouchable!

[klauskunkel]

In-depth discussions about how to jointly achieve nothing.

Look at how the abbot does it: he achieves everything doing nothing, and without mulling over it.

[slapout]

The two leaders involved of the DSI and RIP in the continued non preformance of anything other than press releases which detail plans as full of holes as swiss cheese, may want to consider a new hobby.  They apprently do not need to work (accomplish) anything to draw a paycheck. Those in inactive posts would probably welcome them as blood brothers and grant perment status to them as they appear to contribute about the same thing, nothing.

[Eligius]

Mulling, mulling, mulling, all day long - trying to find lots of things to mull over.

First they have a mull over whether to hold a meeting to mull in.

Then they mull when to hold that meeting.

Next they mull how long the meeting should last.

After that they mull over who should be invited to the meeting.

Furthermore, they must mull over how much mulling would be appropriate for said meeting ...

On and on it goes.

 

"Ludicrous" does not even begin to describe it. It is something that most of us have never ever seen or heard before in our long lives, in different countries.

 

And these people care about - in fact are terrified to the point of committing murder over - 'losing face'?! When you are so utterly thick and brain-dead as this  - there is no more face that can be lost!

[Retiredandhappyhere]

Many months have passed and they have still only reached the "mulling" stage.  At this rate the Statute of Limitations will eventually apply.  Anyway, they are now only "80%" sure that he is still there, so in a few more weeks, that can be reduced to 60% and so on followed by ....................."would you believe it, we went in and he was gone".

[d123]

Could I make a suggestion to the RTP & DSI?

 

Why not simply forget about this issue...the outcome is going to be the same. If they let the issue go away quietly and refrain from making silly statements they won't look like the p**ts that they truly are.

 

I repeat, the outcome is going to be the same...a few million will change hands, there will be no loss of face and everything can continue as though nothing happened.
