I do hope that this is not the start of un uprising again as this is the last thing Thailand needs after all the flood problems. I feel for the poor foreigner who was minding his own business and got caught in this dispicable act. Very sad.

Doubt the keystone cops in thailand will find the person .

 

An Iranian man was severely injured when he threw a bomb at police that hit a tree and bounced back towards him and exploded in Bangkok on Tuesday afternoon, reports said.

Two bombs went off on Sukhumvit 71 road, injuring five people, including an Iranian man, the reports said.

According to a television news report, an Iranian man carrying a black bag hurled the first bomb at a taxi after the driver refused to accept him as a passenger.

 

When police arrived at the scene, the foreigner then threw a second bomb at them, but it hit a tree and bounced back towards him and exploded. He lost both of his legs in the blast, the report said.

The plot thickens ....

Metropolitan Police Deputy Commissioner Pol Maj Gen Pisit Pisutsak said Tuesday three explosions related to Iranian men rocked Bangkok.

He said the first explosion occurred at 2 pm at the rented house of the three Iranian men on Soi Pridi Phanomyong 36.

Pisit said two of them fled and another injured man tried to escape on a taxi but the taxi would not pick him up so he threw a bomb at the taxi on Soi Pridi Phanomyom 31 out of anger.

The man than tried to throw a bomb at police on the Sukhumvit 71 road but the bomb fell on himself and the blast cut both of his legs.

Pisit said the attacker was identified as Saci Morabi, 50.

He said police are still hunting for the two other Iranians.

It's not funny when innocent people get injured in an explosive attack, but it is funny when the attackers are incompetent and blow their own legs off.

[HowieD]

A bad throw, but a good catch.

 

One wonders what these guy's have or had in mind with the bombs.

 

I'm already planning another trip in 6 months time, I won't let twat's like these stop me from travelling.

[fatjack1]

Let's not forget there are 2 guys still loose who were working with this man. This isn't over yet.

[tigerstail]

I have always been a little bit...Nit Noy concerned about being around Walking Street and Sukhumvit with all the middle eastern around..Soi 4 ...as an American..especially the night I was there and bin laden was taken out..got some crazy looks that night...but I could of been from Europe right?

I think we need to watch our asses...even more now...they will be going after falangs..white looking ones..if a war breaks out in the Gulf..and I am not talking about the gulf of Thailand..I am talking about that other gulf...by the STRAits...Of Hormuz.

Watch your back people.

[Hyekillabee]

I have a bad feeling these types of events will escalate in the next year. Tensions are higher than usual in the Middle East these days.
