Thailand: Backup priests sent to temple after four monks test positive for drugs

Buddhist temple in central Thailand was left without its priests after all of them were defrocked for reportedly failing drug tests on Monday.

Four monks, including an abbot, at a temple in Phetchabun province's Bung Sam Phan district tested positive for methamphetamine and were reportedly transferred to a medical facility for drug rehabilitation.

More monks have been dispatched to the temple so that locals don't face any inconvenience with regard to their worship and religious procedures.
