Elucidation of Wat Phra Dhammakaya

March 3, 2017 at 9AM

It is the 16th day that Wat Phra Dhammakaya’s Human Rights has been violated.

(1) Clarification on the death of Miss Pattana Chiangraeng

1.1 Phra Maha Noppon contacted DSI officials at 1.31PM, after recognition of the death, and was in the last group that went there on purpose of coordination.

1.2 From the deceased person’s Line, she could contact and notify another person about her need of inhaler because she was behind the temple’s area, approximately 1.5 kilometers away, so she got some phone signal, though it was weak and unstable. But in the temple’s area, a contact is very difficult to make and more likely not working.

1.3 1669 Paramedics was contacted after the Ratanavej Paramedics was stuck at checkpoints and blocked gates.

1.4 We insist that the residence of the deceased person is located outside the temple, but is still in the controlled area according to article 44.

1.5 We insist that the deceased person was in the medical field, so obviously, she perceived her own illness well, that was the reason why she asked for “inhaler” from her nurse friend to cease her acute symptom. Unfortunately, her friend was stuck at checkpoints because it was in the controlled area according to article 44 and had to go through 5 checkpoints and the phone signal was cut off due to article 44, and that caused her death.
