In 2010, a shocking incident was staged in Baotou, Inner Mongolia, when more than 100 fake monks attacked a police station with swords in hand, causing widespread concern in society. Who the hell is this group of so-called "monks"?What will be their final fate?Let's dive into this staggering story.
On that day, a bus with a Henan license plate passed through the toll gate of the northern suburbs of Baotou City. The driver, a "monk" dressed in a monk's robe, tried to use a string of Buddhist beads to offset the toll, claiming that after the consecration, he would bless glory and wealth. However, the staff member Li Wenbo refused his request and demanded that the toll be paid according to the regulations. This refusal infuriated the "monk", who not only knocked down Li Wenbo, but also opened the railing and let the bus out of the toll booth.
In the process, Li Wenbo suffered multiple fractures, and others were also seriously injured. And these "monks" did not stop and continued to sabotage the toll booths. The staff who called the police in time learned that the group had fled to Guyang County and quickly notified the local **.
Guyang County ** set up a card to intercept, but the bus still rushed through the checkpoint. As a result, the two places joined forces to track and finally intercept this group of "monks" in Guyang County. However, the problem is becoming more complex. These "monks" not only refused to cooperate, but also had an arrogant attitude, even brandishing knives and sticks to threaten **. They claimed, "What's the big deal about breaking the law, you will arrest us!"."In this protracted standoff, they also verbally abused and threatened **.
The complexity of the situation forced the Baotou City Police Department to send special police support. In the process of pursuit, these "monks" continued to taunt **: You just shoot, you have the ability!* Helplessly fighting with these knife-wielding men with their bare hands. In the end, they succeeded in arresting all of these "monks".
Surprisingly, however, these people were not real monks, but farmers from Baofeng County, Pingdingshan City. In 2009, they set up a martial arts performance group impersonating monks from the Shaolin Temple in Songshan to commit fraud by touring the country under false identities. They disguised themselves as monks to cover up their actual wrongdoings, and defrauded many people of their savings by selling Buddhist beads and three-free plasters.
* The investigation found that the gang was involved in illegal economic activities while pursuing personal desires. They sold counterfeit products while falsifying their identities, and plasters containing excessive levels of mercury and lead were also found. This not only poses a threat to individual health, but also has a very bad impact on society.
The eventual outcome of this incident was that these fake "monks" were punished by law, and the mastermind Zhao Guozheng was sentenced to 11 years in prison. Their actions were not only a threat to social order, but also had a negative impact on Buddhism. This incident reminds us that laws and moral norms are the cornerstone of social stability and justice, and that everyone, regardless of status, should abide by laws and regulations and maintain social order.
