Police arrest Erawan bomb suspect
Bangkok Post ^ | 29 Aug 2015 | TERRY FREDRICKSON

Thai police have arrested a young man in connection with the Erawan shrine bombing. He reportedly holds a Turkish passport. According to the report, Thai police raided an apartment on Soi Chueam Samphan 11 in Bangkok's Nong Chok district about two o'clock this afternoon, arresting its occupant. The reports also say bomb-making equipment was found, including ball-bearings very similar to those used in the Erawan shrine bombing.

Post Today reports that national police chief Somyot Poompanmoung said plainclothes police were instrumental in tracking down the suspect and that others were involved in the plot, possibly some Thais.

Excellent. Landlord instrumental in breaking the case. A medal for the landlord for knowing to notify police.

Makes you wonder why they included that information in the Police news release? Kind of makes life a little dicey for the landlord.

In a muzzie country, he would be dead already. Hopefully he will survive.

Thailand ain’t connecticut. This scumbag should be handed some packets of jam and butter. Because He Is Toast.

Funny story I remember from years ago. The Thai’s used a machine gun to execute condemned prisoners. They stopped because the sound of the rat-a-tat first thing in the morning was causing some real anxiety problems with the other noncondemned prisoners.

Thanks for the ping. This raises as many new questions as it gives answers. Good for the landlord.
