Temple Drug Rehab Centre Accused of Torture

WATCH – NOT ALL THAI REHABS ARE CREATED EQUAL –

Sept. 22, 2021 – Media reported the addicts were there both voluntarily and as a condition of their release by police. All had to pay 12,000 baht each once they agreed to treatment, and an additional 2,000 baht a month for food. The treatment was by 12-month contract. Another 10,000 baht was demanded for an early discharge or breach of contract.

“In my view, there is an organised gang involving police, temple and rescue workers,” Mr Jeeraphan said.

“It’s unusual that police from Kalasin and Roi Et provinces took so many people involved in illicit drugs to this temple for rehabilitation. At some villages, 10 or more people were sent there.

“I do hope that national police chief Pol Gen Suwat Jangyodsuk will watch the TV news coverage of this facility and investigate it. If any bad fingers are found, will he (police chief) cut them off?  If not, he will cut his own fingers, won’t he?’’ the shaman said.
