A violent monk is on the run after attacking his 17 year old granddaughter with a hammer and leaving her for dead at a temple in the Isaan province of Ubon Ratchathani last Saturday. Police believe that a letter found at the scene suggests the monk had a crush on the girl and was jealous of a friendship she’d recently struck up with a male friend.

The 17 year old girl, Ae, was found with severe injuries at a monk’s accommodation by her grandmother in the Baan Na Gae Temple in the Phiboon Mang Sa Harn district of Udon Ratchathani on the evening on January 8. She is currently in hospital recovering from her injuries.

What a dreadful thing to happen. Fortunately the young lady hadn't lost consciousness. I trust she will make a full recovery.

As for the Monk, I sincerely hope he is prosecuted correctly.

Just because he is a 'man of god' or other 'dignitary' he must face the law fully
