Former Thai Buddhist Temple Boys Steal From Sattahip Temple

3 former temple boys are in deep trouble with the police and in deeper dooda with The Lord Buddha after they were caught stealing from the donation box at Pa Yoob temple in Amphur Sattahip.

The 3 boys aged 13, 15 and 16 were apprehended by a monk at the temple as they were making off with money from the donation box along with food and drink items that had been donated by members of the public. The boys said that they needed the money to play online games and confessed that they had stolen from the temple many times before.

The abbot of Pa Yoob temple said that the 3 boys were ex-temple boys of his temple and they had been caught stealing before but he felt sorry for them, forgave them and made them leave the temple, but they came back and were caught stealing again so he decided it was time to call the police.
