Turkish connection probed in Bangkok bomb search

AFP, BANGKOK: The hunt for a group behind the Bangkok bombing focused Wednesday on an emerging link with Turkey as Thai police issued an arrest warrant for a Turkish
national for possessing “war materials”.
It is the first time the Thai authorities have revealed the nationality of a foreign suspect in the August 17 blast at a religious shrine that killed 20 people, mostly ethnic Chinese tourists.
A total of eight people are now wanted in connection with the unprecedented attack while a further two unnamed foreigners have been arrested and are in military custody.
