Thai police arrest man over Bangkok bombing
Thai police have arrested a foreign man over the blast that hit the capital Bangkok last month, the prime minister has confirmed.
The suspect is the second foreigner to be held over the bombing of the Erawan shrine after Adem Karadag was detained at an apartment in Bangkok on the weekend.
Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha said the latest man was captured in Sa Kaeo province, east of Bangkok on the border with Cambodia.
He said he is the main suspect wanted over the August 17 attack that left 20 people dead.
However he did not say whether he is suspected of actually planting the bomb.
"We have arrested one more, he is not a Thai," he said.
In a later press confernce, Thailand's national police spokesman Prawut Thavornsiri showed pictures of three more foreign suspects police are hunting.
One of the suspects was unnamed, but the other two were identified as Ahmet Bozaglan and Ali Jolan.
