rooster59 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Monk ‘may have fled in early days of siege’ By THE SUNDAY NATION Dhammakaya Temple followers carry food and drinking water into the compound yesterday after the authorities ended their weeks-long siege in an ongoing hunt for its former abbot Phra Dhammachayo. THE HUNT for wanted former abbot Phra Dhammachayo will continue after authorities admitted that he may have fled during the three-week siege of Dhammakaya Temple, officials responsible for the operation said yesterday. Police and the Department of Special Investigation (DSI) are attempting to verify tip-offs about the fugitive monk’s possible whereabouts, DSI director-general Paisit Wongmuang said yesterday. He added that those places were inside temples affiliated with Dhammakaya. “We have got tip-offs that Phra Dhammachayo may be in hiding at one of those places. The DSI is verifying the information and collecting evidence to apply for a search warrant as soon as possible,” he said.

Still they have made way too much noise and not enough police work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzra Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I'd be willing to bet on all the saffron robs they have up there that the temple has an underground labyrinth of bunkers and tunnels that are self sufficient with entry and exits point away from the temple's gates, and although the abbot might not be there any longer, he was certainly there for some parts of the times....

I just wanted to let you know it is going to be very unpleasant for you and you will not be a monk anymore and you are going to jail for a long time and we are going to take all your stuff and you should not try to leave or hide. OK?" "OK." "By the way, what country code is +377?" Edited March 12, 2017 by NCC1701A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyhangmon Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Oi, obviously there's an entirely new theory emerging now on part of that gassy lot ... really, skedaddled during the first week already, who'd have ever thought of that ...?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was to ill to walk (except walking on water) too heavy to be lifted and invisible to all who tried to assist him. Interesting, when it becomes inconvenient people here just disappear- ordinary criminals, Abbots, Russian tourists, political activists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddavidovsky Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) First time I've heard mention of the other Dhammakayo temples in Thailand. Wiki lists four 'notable' temples, so presumably there are others, and presumably the movement is expanding. Obviously a significant challenge (in terms of competing for adherents) to the establishment temples. Edited March 12, 2017 by ddavidovsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatawonderfulday Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) Well the incompetents gave so much warning I expect he was already long gone. Possibly puffing a joint whilst doing his money laundering on line and reading TV to keep abreast of events and gaining useful insights from the members. You never know Nat ( Lilly thai) maybe with him right now giving him the comfort most Monks need, and she likes to give, now that poor Harold is history.

carlyai Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 One would think those doctors treating him would know where he is. In the photos he did have a pretty bad leg.I think the DSI have done a good job. No one killed or injured. I don't think it's incompetence but a good outcome.They will get him.
