Fake Shaolin monks to serve over year in jail for selling ersatz medicine, illegal assembly
A GROUP of more than 80 fake Shaolin monks were given sentences of more than a year yesterday for crimes that included selling fake medicine and illegal assembly to rush a state institution in central China’s Henan Province.
Each was also fined 2,000 yuan (US$323), Dahe.cn reported.
The men with shaved heads and dressed in monks’ robes, headed by Zhu Li, set out from the province’s Baofeng County on July 24 and sold plasters and other medicines that they claimed were from the famed Shaolin Temple, a Chan Buddhist temple on Mount Song in Henan, police said.
They charged high prices for the fake medicine in counties and towns as they passed by. Residents reported them to the police after 38 of them sold fake medicines in Fengqiu County on July 29.
Police placed two of the men in custody for investigation after the report, and more than 80 of the fake monks assembled to gather at the police station.
The men’s sentences handed down varied from 15 to 16 months.
