Thai Explosive Ordnance Disposal official makes a check on a backpack that was left on the bomb site by a suspect bomber in Bangkok.



Security was tightened along the route from the high-security Bangkok Remand Prison where he was detained to the Court; The Court's ruling means police can detain him for a further 12 days.
Hazaei has been charged with conspiracy to make and possess explosive devices intended to cause harm to others. Police investigators said they opposed bail, citing possible flight risk as the case concerned serious offences with severe punishment. In addition, the explosive devices found were especially powerful and destructive, posing a threat to the public. The suspect, if released, might tamper with witnesses or evidence. Hazaei was arrested at Suvarnabhumi Airport on February 14 as he was about to board a flight to Malaysia. Arrest warrants have been issued for five suspects, with two suspects still at large, and police are gathering evidence to seek an additional arrest warrant for a sixth suspect.
Thailand on Tuesday sent a request to Malaysia for the extradition of Masoud Sedaghatzadeh, a suspect in the same case. He was arrested by Malaysian authorities in Kuala Lumpur, one day after three explosions in Sukhumvit area.
What do potential terrorists do when they arrive in an Asian country to allegedly blow up foreign diplomats?
Head straight to the seaside resort of Pattaya for some R&R, of course.
Immigration records show that Mr. Moradi and Mr. Hazaei entered the country at Phuket on Feb 8 on a flight from Malaysia. Mr. Masoud, who claims he only met the other two socially in Malaysia, had travelled to Phuket from Kuala Lumpur the previous day. The entry date of the three men does not preclude them from being at the Bangkok house as immigration officials said all three had been in Thailand twice in the previous 12 months.
