BANGKOK — A foreign man is being treated for burns he received after setting himself ablaze in front of the Iranian Embassy in Bangkok, a police spokesman said Saturday.

 

The man, who remains unidentified, was seen dousing himself in gasoline and setting himself on fire with a lighter in front of the embassy at about 1pm on Friday.

 

“We still do not have his identity,” Col. Krissana Pattanacharoen said by telephone.

Crazy!

We all have a right, or should have, to express opinion but to to go to those extremes is scary.

Um...well he might be Iranian and um...he might not want to go home.  That's a start.

"Police Sen. Sgt. Maj. Anek Permsomboon, who was stationed at the embassy Friday, told Matichon he saw the man walking toward the embassy with a sign reading “Don’t voted Iris” in English and another three words he believed were in Arabic."

 

If he was protesting at the Iranian embassy I doubt they were in Arabic.
