Back to back explosions hit Thailand’s tourist town of Hua Hin late last night (Thursday, 11th August), resulting in 1 dead and at least 19 injured victims, including 4 who were gravely wounded.
The accident happened at a tourist bar area, a day before Thailand’s “Mother’s Day”, a public holiday to mark the birthday of Queen Sirikit, the current Queen of the country.
The alleged mobile phone had a Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission’s (MCMC) serial number and it has been handed over to the Malaysian authorities to trace the origin of the device.
When asked whether the said handphone was used in other criminal activities, Chakhthip declined to comment due to its confidential nature.
