In a disturbing incident in Chon Buri province, a Thai man, 49-year-old, named Ek, lost his life after a Buddha statue's sharp head pierced his chest during a rampage at a local temple. The chaos unfolded in the main hall of a temple in the Banbung district, leading locals to ponder the swift manifestation of karma.

Concerned residents in Banbung district reached out to the Banbung Police Station on February 27, around 1 pm, reporting Ek's violent outburst targeting a monk named Best within the temple premises. Witnesses revealed that Ek, under the influence of methamphetamine (Yaba), had been staying with Best at the temple for a few days before the tragic incident occurred.

Upon arrival, law enforcement officers found Ek barricaded in the main hall, having locked all doors and windows while causing damage to Buddha statues inside. Cautious about Ek potentially possessing a weapon, the police maintained a perimeter and urged Ek to surrender. With no response, they decided to forcefully enter the hall.

To their horror, they discovered Ek lifeless in a pool of blood, with a Buddha statue's head piercing his chest. A video capturing the operation depicted the shock and disbelief of police and onlookers witnessing the gruesome scene.

Investigations suggest that Ek may have attempted to vandalize the largest statue in the main hall but accidentally slipped, falling onto the pointed head of a smaller Buddha statue. The sharp tip penetrated Ek's heart and lungs, leading to his tragic demise.

The implicated monk, Best, admitted to consuming Yaba with Ek and confessed to police about his involvement in the incident. He further disclosed that Ek, under the drug's influence, had assaulted him earlier in the day with a fluorescent tube. Best escaped to seek assistance from fellow monks, leaving Ek to unleash destruction on the temple's sacred statues.
