webfact Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 ERAWAN BOMB BLASTSuspect 'confesses' he planted shrine bombTHE NATIONPolice looking for clinching evidence to prove Adem Karadag was the bomber in yellow t-shirtBANGKOK: -- ADEM KARADAG, the foreigner arrested late last month in connection with the Erawan Shrine bombing, has confessed that he was the man who planted the explosive device that killed 20 people and injured 100 others on August 17.Karadag, or Bilal Muhammed, has confessed that he was the man who planted the bomb at the shrine, according to a source familiar with the ongoing police investigation.He told police that after placing his backpack containing the explosive device at the shrine, he hired a motorcycle taxi to Lumpini Park. He then removed his wig, glasses and armbands before changing into new clothes, according to the source.Police investigators have studied security-camera recordings that show a man who looked like the bomber entering a toilet in Lumpini Park, which is just a few minutes' ride from Erawan Shrine.The video showed the man caught on CCTV in a yellow T-shirt before and after he entered the toilet.Police took Karadag to different locations associated with the bomb attack to confirm his confession, according to the source.Investigators found that Karadag looked like the man in the video who went to Lumpini Park to change his clothes, the source said.The man has become more cooperative with the investigators and has given them more information that was helpful to the probe, the source said.Meanwhile, Karadag's lawyer, Chuchart Kanpai, yesterday said his client has insisted that he is not the bomber. He challenged the police claim that Karadag has confessed that he had planted the bomb.National police chief General Somyot Poompanmuang yesterday declined to confirm that Karadag was the bomber. But he said he believed the police had evidence to prove so."For me, Thai police are the best in the world. I believe police have evidence, but I can't disclose anything further about this," he said.The police chief said that judging from the amount of bomb-making materials found in possession of the suspects in this case, it appeared they were making more than 10 explosive devices. It was fortunate for Thailand that those people were arrested before the bombs were planted, he added."If all those 10 explosive devices had been planted, they would have caused massive damage to Thailand. Thanks to all the sacred beings, the country was spared from disaster," Somyot said.However, he also said that despite Karadag's confession, investigators would still need confirmation with more clinching evidence."The investigators are confident that Adem was the bomber but they still cannot be conclusive from the CCTV images," Somyot said.Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwan said yesterday that DNA tests would be required to confirm that Karadag was the bomber.He said that the authorities were not attempting to close the case and that it should be dealt with in accordance with evidence.He said the confession could not prove that the man was the real bomber.Metropolitan Police chief Lt-General Sriwara Rangsiphra-manakul yesterday said the investigation into the case was 90 per cent complete.Commenting on Karadag's reported confession, he said that the investigators would need more evidence to strengthen their case against the suspect, as confession was insufficient to prove in court.Source: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/national/Suspect-confesses-he-planted-shrine-bomb-30269521.html-- The Nation 2015-09-25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaywalker Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 does he still have all his toenails attached, and no missing nuts ? Water-boarding leaves no traces, except in the victim's mind. Glad they are looking for further evidence though & not just running with some tortured confession.......Like they seem to be doing at the Samui courthouse.

soihok Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Let's hope they have the right man. This guy was caught with explosive devices when he was arrested and by all accounts was not cooperative at all. If he is the man, one must congratulate the Thai Police.

NongKhaiKid Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Almost seems pointless to have trials here as the BIB lay out all the supposed evidence long before a suspect is charged. Just as well they make the rules up as they go along as nothing ever seems to be sub judice and the occasional ' can't talk about that ' assertion is a joke as the BIB just can't stop talking.

It was a neighbour who lived in the same building as the bomber who tipped the police. Then the police gave the reward of 3 million to themselves.

The police chief said Thai police are the best in the world, so game set and reward, plus wait there is more, more reward money from Thaksins son to divvy up, not to share with Malaysia, however this is looking more likely to be Mr Bomber.

NanLaew Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 ... For me, Thai police are the best in the world. I believe police have evidence, but I can't disclose anything further about this," he said. ... This also applies to the handsomely rewarded police involved with the Kho Tao unraveling prosecution murder investigation. The Thai police have loads of evidence and it doesn't really matter that it is mostly fabricated, fake or non-existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realenglish1 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Police work that you cannot trust since they EXTRACT a CONFESSION from the arrested man Why do I not trust the Thai Police?

Must have something to do with interrogation techniques Human Instinct, or the third eye, they have this inbuilt sonar and mind reading ability to say that most reported deaths are suicide b4 the forensic ever comes.

AleG Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Seems quite damning to me, footage of the bomber entering a toilet, out comes with changed clothes and no wig, glasses or armbands, he looks very much like Karadag, then CCTV footage of Karadag wearing the same clothes arriving at his condo. That and the evidence of bomb making makes it a slam dunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barin Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Somehow I am convinced that this poor guy Adem Karadag has nothing to do with the bombing. The picture of the yellow shirted man shows a different person, the body constitution is clearly different, isn't it? The yellow shirted man is more slim.
