AFP, BANGKOK: Thai authorities know who was behind a wave of bombings that rocked tourist destinations and killed four people, a police spokesman said Sunday, though officials remained tight-lipped on the details of their probe. At least two men have been held for questioning over the blasts in Hua Hin—a resort town struck by four of the bombs—and a third was arrested over a suspected arson attack in a separate province, police said.
“Our investigation is progressing. We know who was behind it,” deputy national police spokesman Piyapan Pingmuang told AFP, declining to provide further details on those detained or a possible motive.
A junta spokesman confirmed that multiple people have been questioned but stressed it was too early to identify them as suspects.
“It’s just asking questions. They will not be treated as suspects unless the questioning procedure is done and any of them are found to have violated laws.
Then legal action may be taken against them,” said Colonel Winthai Suvaree.
