Decision on Phra Dhammachayo's indictment postponed

Public prosecutors postponed the decision whether to indict Phra Dhammachayo, abbot of Pathum Thani's Wat Phra Dhammakaya, and four other suspects over charges of money-laundering and receiving illegal money linked to the Klongchan Credit Union Cooperati

The postponement was because the prosecutor-requested additional investigation wasn't yet complete, Office of Attorney-General (OAG) spokesman Somnuek Siangkong told the press yesterday. He declined to elaborate details of additional probe.
