Officials start to screen out outsiders from Dhammakaya temple

 

All monks and lay people who do not have residence in Wat Dhammakaya were told to get out of the temple ground at 3 pm today (Sunday) as officials of the Department of Special Investigation and police started to depopulate the temple to facilitate their search for Phra Dhammachayo and to prevent his followers from regrouping.

 

Meanwhile, monks are lay people who have residence in the temple were told to report themselves to authorities at Gate 6 to have their ID cards checked and registered in a bid to prevent outsiders from taking refuge in the temple.

 

Outsiders who were not registered will face imprisonment of up to one year and/or a fine of up to 20,000 baht for defying NCPO Order No 5/2560 if they are caught inside the temple ground.

Tough crackdown for misdemeanors but  not when it comes to a corrupted monk.

Matter of easy and less fortunate targets I guess.
