Police seek warrants for grenade suspects

Chiang Mai police are seeking warrants for the arrest of two or three more suspects believed connected to recent grenade attacks in the northern province.

Wanlop Phithiphrom, 26, was arrested in Bangkok late on Sunday night and police said on Tuesday he had confessed to having fired grenades from an M79 launcher at three places in Chiang Mai.

He denied launching a grenade at the construction company owned by Khanaen Supha, the father-in-law of Newin Chidchob, the Bhumjaithai Party's de facto leader, in Chiang Mai. The company's building was hit by a grenade on Sept 12.
