Former Thai monk Wirapol Sukphol, 38, is accused of a series of wrongdoings, including computer crime, fraud, money laundering, and a lavish lifestyle.

Suri Sukphol, Wirapol's younger brother, held a press conference in July 2013, claiming that he was the one in the photo. Suri stated that he took Wirapol's old car and drove Pra Wa to a resort in Si Sa Ket for sexual intercourse. Suri said he felt terrible that his brother had become the victim and was ready to face any confrontation to prove his claim.

However, two months later, Suri denied being the person in the photo and admitted to lying to help her brother. Pra Wa removed the photo from Facebook after Wirapol paid her approximately $176,000.

Thai media also reported that Wirapol had an affair with a 25-year-old woman living near Wat Pa Khanti Tham monastery in Si Sa Ket and had a son with her. Wirapol brought her to Bangkok to avoid the affair being exposed.

Wirapol was also reportedly infatuated with a 27-year-old woman from Bann Tased village in Si Sa Ket, whom he named Kanya Wan Kan, implying that he wanted her close to him. Wirapol bought her a rubber plantation and built a luxurious house in Si Sa Ket, where he often visited his lover.

Wirapol's most outrageous alleged affair was with Salakjit "Ying" Apipat, who was only 13 years old when he met her in Nom Jan village in Si Sa Ket district in 2000. Ying was an orphan, lived with her grandmother, and often came to clean the hut for them.WirapolThe girl's aunt, Phey Sihawong, had a favorable impression of her.WirapolTherefore, it's no surprise that the monk often came to the small wooden house where the grandmother and granddaughter lived to invite Ying to play. "Hey, Ying, come with me, I'll buy you a gift," Mrs. Phey recalled the monk's enticing words.Wirapol.

Wirapol forced Ying into sexual relations, resulting in her pregnancy. To conceal his actions, Wirapol moved the two of them to a rented house in Ubon Ratchathani. Wirapol occasionally visited them in ordinary clothes to hide his identity as a monk. He also showed indifference towards the child Ying bore.

However, Ying said that during this time she began to fall in love with Wirapol. "He cared for me and promised to leave the monastic life so we could live together as a family," she said.

Seeing that the police were becoming suspicious about the house in Ubon Ratchathani, Wirapol became worried and took the three of them to Bangkok, renting them an apartment. Wirapol never visited but sent money to support Ying and her children, although the amount was insufficient. About 12 months later, in 2003, Mrs. Phey bought train tickets for the whole family to return to Nom Jan.

"I haven't spoken to him since we left Bangkok. He doesn't provide money to raise Nom or send her to school," Ying said sadly.

When Wirapol's lavish lifestyle was exposed in June 2013, Ying decided to break her decade-long silence and reveal her relationship with the monk and their son. She filed a lawsuit seeking $1.4 million in child support. "I didn't want to harm Wirapol," Ying said. "I just wanted him to come and see what he missed, meet his son, and take responsibility for him. He's a good boy and deserves better than I can provide," Ying said in 2013.

Besides having relationships with young girls, Wirapol is also accused of having a relationship with Onsa Yubram, a 46-year-old cleaning lady in Bangkok. "His voice was very nice, very captivating. He charmed us with his words," she said.

"As a Buddhist, I can understand why this happens. In some ways, monks are just ordinary men with greed and desires," she said. "Some are depraved, but that doesn't mean all monks are bad."
