He's been indicted 134 times.  It's just the cops who can't find him to bring him to justice.

Different abbot. It is confusing thought since they're all corrupt.

However, Wat Paknam Phasicharoen’s assistant abbot Phra Maha Satsanamunee, aka Luang Pee Pae, was not indicted as there is no evidence suggesting that he had a hand in the alleged tax evasion, while the charge of him possessing a vehicle for which tax has not been fully paid was invalid.

 

What the heck does that mean???

And the band goes marching on....

Where do all these abbots disappear to Abbotsville. 

And what of the criminal in saffron?   Is he just allowed to continue chanting away in the corner as if nothing has happened?

 

This whole country is beyond belief.
