Proving there is such a thing as a free lunch! Bogus monk "defrocked" on Twitter

 

Picture: Daily News

 

A post that is going viral on Twitter featured pictures of a man by a klong who takes off his saffron robes, gathers a lot of donations and walks off carrying a large bag.

 

The Thai public were in no doubt that this was a fake monk getting a free lunch after going on a bogus alms round. 

 

The man was shamed on @golferic1, who mentioned "costume change".

 

Netizens want the Thai authorities to act in the case, reported Daily News.
