Bomb Attack in Area Near King Power Duty Free UPDATE : 30 July 2010 At around 1:30 A.M. last night, authorities were informed that a bomb had exploded at a building directly across the King Power Duty Free Complex on Soi Rangnam in the Phayathai area, injuring one person. On site, police found a man around 30 to 40 years old who had been seriously injured from bomb shrapnel. Near the victim was a hold in the ground at the foot of a tree with shrapnel and remains of a black plastic bag. Witnesses in the area say they saw a green and yellow taxi parked near the tree before the explosion took place. However, the taxi sped away right after the bomb exploded. Witnesses did not get a chance to notice the license plate on the vehicle. After an initial investigation of the crime scene, authorities believe that the explosive used in the attack was a stick hand grenade which was planted around the tree trunk in a black plastic bag. The victim is believed to be a garbage collector who intended to look inside the plastic bag, which triggered the bomb to explode. The victim was transported to Ratchavitee Hospital and remains in critical condition. As of 8:30 A.M. on Friday morning, he has not regained consciousness. The blast comes on the heels of the government's decision to cancel the State of Emergency in six provinces. Ten provinces, including the capital of Bangkok and its metropolitan areas, remain under emergency decree. |
