Jai Dee Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 DSI identifies a BKK bombings suspect The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) disclosed that an additional suspect of the bombings in Bangkok and neighbouring Nonthaburi on New Year’s Eve has been identified, thanks to the state-of-the-art photographic technology. The officials got hold of the footage where the suspect was at the parking lot in Seacon Square Shopping Center. However, the DSI has not invited the suspect to the department for interrogation yet. Mr. Sunai Manomai-udom, the DSI director-general, however stated that the images from the security camera could not yet confirm whether the suspect was directly involved with the incident, and more evidence and witnesses have to be gathered. Meanwhile, Justice Minister Charnchai Likhitjittha revealed that the DSI has spotted three suspects from the Closed Circuit Television (CCTV), and two of them are men and the other is a woman. However, the images have clearly captured the facial appearance on one suspect. He further stated that the suspect is a civilian with heavy criminal records, and the person is also trying to get away from the police at the moment.

Jai Dee Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 DSI hones in on suspects from security camera tapes The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) has singled out images of three suspects in the New Year bombings in Bangkok using security camera footage taken at CentralWorld Plaza that police had already analysed. Justice Minister Charnchai Likhitjitta said the DSI spotted two suspicious men and one woman on footage from a security camera. After sketching one of the men and cross-checking the picture with criminal records, the DSI found he had been charged in a criminal case before but had escaped. Sketches of the other two suspects will be sent overseas for identification using equipment unavailable in Thailand. He said the tapes the DSI team examined were the same as those previously analysed by the police. He denied the DSI had a secret security camera. More from the Bangkok Post here.

Scott Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 The word "invite" is a rather ominous word in Thailand. Our Thai boss once "invited" some of us to do something. A few declined the "invitation" and were promptly dismissed! I learned a valuable lesson that day. When someone "invites" you, you better say yes! (Unless your someone important--which I am not).

Jai Dee Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 DSI Director General affirms his agents did not distribute images of bomb suspects to press members The Director General of the Department of Special Investigations affirms that circulated pictures of the suspects in the Bangkok and Nonthaburi bombings were not leaked by DSI agents. The Director General of the Department of Special Investigations, Mr. Sunai Manomai-adul (สุนัย มโนมัยอุดม), revealed that the pictures of the Bangkok and Nonthaburi bomber suspects printed on the front page of major newspapers today (February 2) were not circulated by DSI agents. Mr. Sunai said he had questioned the agents investigating the case and none are likely to have passed on the picture to the press. He said that DSI officials required sophisticated software to further clarify the surveillance camera images of suspects obtained from Seacon Square Department Store and would have the images ready within 1 week. The director-general said that the Crime Suppression Police Division also possessed pictures of the bomber suspects. Mr. Sunai said that the Bangkok and Nonthaburi bombing case should be classified as a Special Investigation case so that DSI agents can utilize their full investigative capabilities in the matter. The Director-General added that if police apprehended the suspects first there were obliged to share investigative information with the Department of Special Investigations according to a prior agreement.

Jai Dee Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 Thailand sees possible Muslim role in Bangkok bombs Thai investigators are reopening the possibility Muslim militants from the far south might have planted bombs in Bangkok that killed three people on New Year's Eve, a top Justice Ministry official said on Friday. Sunai Manomai-udom, head of the mnistry's Department of Special Investigation (DSI), said a man caught on a security camera near one of the places hit was also a suspect in a series of bank bombs in the three southernmost provinces. "We think it's him," Sunai told Channel 3 television. He named the man as Thawansak Jehna, for whom an arrest warrant was issued in October in connection with bombs in the Muslim-majority southern province of Yala. Sunai said police and DSI investigators had spotted Thawansak, along with another man and a woman, on security video from a mall where a bomb hidden in a tube of potato chips had been defused. In the immediate aftermath of the blasts, the army-installed government ruled out militants from the far south, where 2,000 people have died in a three-year separatist campaign of shootings and bombings. Instead, they inferred that Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, ousted in a Sept. 19 military coup, or elements in the police and army still loyal to him were behind the attacks. Thaksin, a former police officer, has denied any links to the bombs, which also wounded 38 people and sent shockwaves through the country. Sunai also told a Bangkok radio station the DSI had asked Interpol for help in identifying the other two suspects on the tape. Last week, police released without charge a group of 19 people -- a mixture of police, military and civilians -- detained seven days earlier on suspicion of involvement.

Tony Clifton Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Blasts: conflicting accounts by agencies The investigation into the New Year's Eve bombings has become complicated and the public confused by conflicting accounts and rivalry among the three law enforcement agencies involved. http://www.nationmultimedia.com/2007/02/03...es_30025852.php The total incompetence of the police and them pretending they are conducting serious investigations have finally led to this. These investigations are intentionally messed up, just like the pre-coup investigations, all handled to please Thaksin. PUUUUURGE the boys in brown, PUUUURGE!

asd Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Thursday, August 31, 2006 23 Yala banks hit by bomb blasts The bombs, mostly left on bank counters and some in ATM booths at the banks, were detonated mostly by clocks. Twenty six people suffered minor injuries. The militants, disguised as students, planted the home-made bombs inside the banks hours before the blasts. Thawansak Paenae was allegedly caught in security footage by a CCTV system at the Bangkok Bank (BBL) in Betong district. He carried bomb hidden in handbag. At least 1,300 people have been killed since unrest broke out in January 2004 in Yala , Pattani and Narathiwat provinces. After ousting Thaksin in a coup last September, junta leader Sonthi Boonyaratglin and Surayud Chulanont launched a raft of peace efforts in southern Thailand. Surayud Chulanont said. "Don't make a too quick judgement before the investigation concludes on whether the southern unrest has intensified and moved to Bangkok." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
