The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) terminated legal proceedings against the former abbot of Phra Dhammakaya Temple and the owner of Victoria’s Secret massage parlour. The former abbot, Chaiyabun Suddhipol, known as Luang Por Dhammajayo, was accused of money laundering linked to the Klongchan Credit Union Cooperative case. Allegations involved more than 10 billion baht in damage from funds transferred to the temple. The case drew public attention for the amount of money involved and controversy surrounding the temple’s activities. Despite obstruction during previous raids, DSI announced the end of legal action against the former abbot and the massage parlour owner.
