Police hunt for two men seen at bomb blast sites at Government Complex
A manhunt has been launched for two men seen arriving at the Government Complex in a taxi on Thursday and walking to the spots in front of the complex where the blasts occurred on Friday morning.
A police source said security camera footage caught the men walking to two spots in front of the complex’s Building B. The first suspect, wearing a black hat, appeared to be about 165 centimetres tall and about 50 years of age. He wore brown trousers and was carrying a black bag.
The second suspect was a little plump and also in the 50-year age range, the source said, adding that investigators have also spoken to the taxi driver who dropped the two off at the complex.
The cabbie told police that he had picked the duo up at Makro Rangsit shopping mall and that their faces were concealed with flu masks. He said the man with the black hat only said: “Go to Government Complex, Building B”, and that the two did not say much to each other inside the cab. He also noticed that their accent was neither northeastern nor central.
The cabbie confirmed delivering the two men to Building B at 3pm on Thursday.
