Deaths of two men in blast linked to political strife: police

BANGKOK: -- An ongoing investigation suggests that bomb blasts in Bangkok's Min Buri district on Saturday were related to intensifying political violence.

One of the explosions killed two men, who were believed to have carried the explosives at the time they went off.

National Police Commissioner Gen Adul Saengsingkaew said yesterday there were grounds to believe that the incidents had a political link.

"I have already instructed Assistant National Police Commissioner Lt Gen Winai Thongsong to urgently look into the cases," Adul said.

Police have also strictly manned checkpoints, he said, in a bid to prevent or at least reduce violence during the ongoing political crisis.

Metropolitan Police Division 3 commander Maj Gen Sukhun Prommayon said the two men killed in one of the blasts on Saturday had lived in a rented house. He said available evidence and witnesses' statements had proved useful to ongoing inquiries.

"But we can't disclose details at this point," he said.

One thing about bomb making class, the final exam is pass or death.

I'd hate to have the job of a suicide-bomb tester !

Hope the police have identified, and are now searching urgently for, the other men who were reported as fleeing the rented-house after the premature-explosion ?

At least this time, innocent bystanders weren't killed, unlike the Nonthaburi explosion when a red shirt bomb maker blew up several innocents along with himself.

Just watch and see who has just gone on a long holiday to Cambodia.......Ko Tee where are you.

I wonder what triggered the bomb, it was most likely on a mobile phone detonation trigger, maybe someone in the van following hit redial on his phone wondering who called him lol

or maybe AIS sent some promotion sms - dial *500.........................BOOOOOOOOOM

sorry but I honestly find it hilarious, pity it didn't happen more often

National Police Commissioner Gen Adul Saengsingkaew said yesterday there were grounds to believe that the incidents had a political link.

In a country with a population of 68 million, where a rape happens every 15 minutes, where there are 1.2 million meth addicts, corruption is rampant and human trafficking is not uncommon we have a police chief that only ever seems to pop his head up and is personally involved when a crime has a "political link" In this case he is the spokesman, he faces the media with updates and any information that we receive is filtered through this man. One may suggest he has an agenda to serve. One may suggest that his sole purpose is to "filter" political linked crimes and present them to the public is a controlled way as to ensure his accused terrorist, accused mass murderer, convicted criminal unelectable backer is not displeased. One cannot support the red shirts and also have them arrested at the same time….Well unless the army are involved of course.

One could suggest if this was the PDRC that committed the crime then the names would be splashed all over the front pages. Chalerm blamed Akeyuth's driver and released this information to the press quicker than Adul is releasing the information on these motorcyclists. We have an ardent critic of thaksin having been murdered and Chalerm fell over himself to lay blame on the driver. This was before there was even an investigation. Then we have a couple of low life muppets on a motorbike and the information cannot be released.

One may suggest he has an agenda to serve. WRONG. One may not suggest that. It is fact that he has an agenda to serve. FACTS….The PTP's greatest enemy. Beliefs….Their greatest friend.

Uh, that's some great detective work, lou.

"But we can't disclose details at this point," he said.

Because you haven't worked out a way to spin the fact that they are red shirt terrorists and of course those don't exist (according to PT, Thaksin and the oh so very reliable Police).

"I have already instructed Assistant National Police Commissioner Lt Gen Winai Thongsong to urgently look into the cases," Adul said.

So Adul who I have highlighted above is working to an agenda handed the case to no other than Winai Thongsong…Thaksin's nephew!

So a biased police chief that had his insignia pinned on by thaksin is handing the case to a biased assistant commissioner that is a relative of thaksins. No wonder the information is not released yet. Next, the fingerprint guy will be thaksins cousin.

​I truly look forward to seeing how this case is presented to the public. PDRC supporters anyone? Inconclusive evidence anyone?

The terrorist anti democratic supporters perceive the judiciary to be biased even when they present facts and evidence when making a ruling and denounce the judiciary and will even start a civil war based on this perceived belief they have yet they stay silent on the above factual and evident bias of the police force because this bias suits their agenda.

SO really they don't mind a biased system as long as it is biased to their needs and circumstances.

I wouldn't be leaping to that conclusion: the names released indicate an entirely different possibility.

[WoopyDoo]

They can't reveal details yet. because they were red shirts.

If they were linked to anti-government protesters, the details would have been released.

Almost certainly connected with Ko Tee.

It is long overdue that this prick be taken down with lethal force.

One from Issan and one from the North points to a possibility.

Thank goodness when the police subsequently raided one of their houses, the significant stockpile of additional bomb-making material was neutralized.

That they were possession of a potentially disasterous explosion in a residential area is reminiscent of the aforementioned Nonthaburi apartment building catastrophe that the red shirt bomb maker accidentaly set off.

More denial as usual from those who don't wanna call a quacking, waddling swimming animal a duck. Give it another name and pass it off.

No. They don't. But you'll never admit to the red shirts doing anything wrong.

I am curious tho how many of the red TV supporters are married to working-class girls and what impact that has on their viewpoints.

BUT the most difficult work is for post-mortem team I guess in this case ....

The only reason; they know darn PTP is post-feudalism in a developing country, with graft done on the backs of taxpayers. They have nothing to benefit from relating to PTP. Just a little complex over the bird they found & where & why they settled for bottom of the barrel.
