webfact Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 Third search of Dhammakaya temple resumes this morning BANGKOK: -- A combined force of officials from the Department of Special Investigation (DSI), police, soldiers and local administration officials resumed the search at two suspected areas in the Dhammakaya temple after defiant monks and followers agreed to lift their blockades following a successful negotiation. The negotiation was joined by Phra Thepratanasuthi, the head monk of Pathumthani province. Two suspected areas inside the vast temple compund are Zone A and Zone B which covers total area of 200 rai where the Boonraksa building is located. The building houses sick monks. The two zones are where the DSI had intercepted the mobile phone signals of the fugitive Phra Dhammachayo’s personal phone number. Today’s search was the third time after almost a month long standoff between DSI officials and the defiant monks and followers setting up barricades to obstruct the search of the two zones.

Misterwhisper Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I don't need to be clairvoyant to know that they are not going to find the fugitive in those zones or in that monks' hospital. He has already been moved to another hiding place, otherwise the temple wouldn't have permitted the search so suddenly. Note to DSI: Instead of searching those new zones, skip them and return to the zones already searched and subject them to another thorough combing. I bet you'll find your elusive monk then. It's not rocket science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many of the monks realize that there are serious issues involved which must be properly investigated according to the laws of Thailand, but are afraid to speak up?
