reader Posted Sunday at 06:22 PM Posted Sunday at 06:22 PM From Bangkok Post A former chief of the National Office of Buddhism (NOB) accused of embezzling temple funds has been arrested in Texas, according to a source. Nopparat Benjawattananan, who fled overseas after the scandal surfaced in 2017, was detained on April 11 at a hospital by the US Marshals Service ahead of a formal extradition request expected from the Thai government. His arrest follows a request by Thai officials who want him extradited to face charges related to the alleged embezzlement. The extradition process could take some time. https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/3002391/former-chief-of-national-office-of-buddhism-held-in-us TMax 1 Quote
