“Initial investigations found a homemade bomb mounted on a modified motorcycle and located close to the control centre.

Prachaya said police had intensified efforts to track down the suspect and the motive for the explosion.
Meanwhile, Prachaya stated that they received a report of the bomb explosion at 9.35 last night.
“After arriving at the scene, we found an improvised explosive device placed inside a modified motorcycle, which was then positioned near the security control centre of the volunteer defence forces, a popular night-time resting area for the public,” he said.
He added that the explosion also injured two volunteer defence force members on duty in that area.
Prachaya said police had cordoned off the scene to conduct an investigation to identify the suspects and motives behind the explosion.
“As of now, no entity has claimed responsibility for the incident, and police will proceed with their investigation,” he said. – May 7, 2024
