Police confounded by sticker mystery

Police detectives are questioning more than 20 printing houses in Bangkok but none of them claimed to have printed them or were even aware of them. Investigators are now probing which companies have stocks or produce the kind of adhesive paper used to print the SEJEAL stickers, which contain Serilux at the back or a logo in a triangle with the word DURO in it.
The stickers, police sources said, could have been pasted on December 27 last year, judging from different security camera footages available. The images show a man, whose appearance was not clear, pasting the stickers at an unspecified location in Bangkok at night.
Police are obtaining footage before last October, and also from January and February this year, the sources added.
While police have not yet solved the case of the three blasts in Bangkok last week, there was a bomb scare yesterday at Ramkhamhaeng Soi 24, where a postal parcel was found near a postbox. A police Explosive Ordnance Disposal team found that the parcel contained a piece of sponge, wrapped in a piece of red artificial leather.
A senior commander, Pol MajGeneral Charn Wimolsee, said the incident had supposedly nothing to do with last week’s explosions that unearthed a suspected terror plot.
Police found that a portable radio model that was made into three radio bombs, one of which was found at a house rented by the suspects, was made in China and had not been imported into Thailand by any trader or importer. A probe is underway to find out how they were in suspects’ hands.
An Iranian suspect, Saeid Moradi, who lost his legs when a grenade he threw backfired on him, has reportedly regained consciousness but is still unable to speak. The Bangkok Remand Prison has turned down a police request to admit him under in its detention at Chulalongkorn Hospital as the prison’s medical staff are not capable of caring for his postsurgery injuries.
