BANGKOK: -- A Thai military court issued an arrest warrant on Tuesday for a second suspect in connection with a wave of deadly bomb attacks last week that killed four people and injured dozens, police said.

 

Explosions rocked seven provinces in Thailand's south on Thursday and Friday, just days after Thais voted to accept a military-backed constitution.

 

No group has claimed responsibility but police and senior officials have publicly ruled out any link to foreign militants. "The court has approved the arrest warrant for one suspect for the explosions. We can't say who that individual is," said Chaiyapol Chatchaidet, commander of the Counter Crime Planning Division.

Still alive and claiming to be tortured three months ago.... Mind you, where they are... Three months is a long time

They couldn't find their own rectum in the dark!

Here is some piece of advise: research, look for, find, arrest...THEN have something out in the press!

On this morning's BBC World  News, they showed a Chinese person being led away in handcuffs, as a suspect in the bombings one year ago.

 

As World TravellerMUC asks, what happened to him??

The arrest warrant has been issued for Mr P Okemon. If you see him take a picture and forward to the RTP.
