The 41st Military Circle Court in Nakhon Si Thammarat has issued arrest warrants for two more suspects for the Phuket bombing, which was part of the August 11-12 spate of arson and bomb attacks in seven tourist towns.
Deputy national police chief Pol General Sriwara Rangsipramanakul, who led the case investigation, said yesterday that the two suspects identified as Muhammad Muhi, 21, and Yusoh Maetimoh, 30, came from Pattani’s Nong Chik district. They both face charges of possessing war-grade explosives without permission, conspiring for arson and racketeering.
This move brings the number of wanted suspects in this case to nine – with Abdul Kadae Salae, suspected for the Trang arson suspect, being detained by police.
The other wanted men are Phang-Nga firebomb suspect Sukiman Kubaru, Phuket bombing suspect Ahama Lengha, Nakhon Si Thammarat bombing suspect Hakeem Doloh and Hua Hin bombing suspects Russaran Baima, Asmin Katemmadee and Seri Waemamu.
Srivara said the case investigation had progressed by 70 per cent and that Abdul-Kadae, who claims to be innocent, was found to have a false alibi.
