Bomb goes off, another defused

Guard watching Olympics, too far away to get hurt in blast; second device uncovered at gas filling station

BOMB AFTERMATH
Bystanders look at the rubble in front of a wall at a Caltex petrol station in downtown Narathiway which was bombed early yesterday. In the background is a damaged office and the wrackage of a pick-up truck. No one was hurt.
A bomb went off at a petrol station downtown in Muang district yesterday, injuring no one, while another planted in a cooking gas filling station was defused 10 minutes before it was set to go off.

A homemade power gel bomb weighing 10kg blew up at a Caltex petrol station in downtown Narathiwat at 12.25am. It caused damage to an office, a pick-up truck and a nearby store. A security guard was the only person on duty. He was safe because he was watching a televised Olympics boxing event on the other side of the station.

Police believe the bomb might have been a personal attack on the station owner, Pipat Klinprathum, a 41-year-old Thai-Chinese loan shark. He had received letters demanding protection fees. A grenade was thrown from a motorcycle into his station in February.

Local police were alerted at 8.30am yesterday that a bomb had been planted in the Siam Gas petrol station on Phet Kasem highway in Narathiwat's Muang district.

The provincial special operations team defused the bomb, a 10kg emulsion power gel bomb, at 9.20am. It was set to go off at 9.30am.

At 10am, a caller said there was a bomb in an auditorium in Muang district, near the provincial hall. About 50 military and police officers combed the hall for about an hour, finding nothing suspicious.

On Thursday, a bomb set off in a morning market in Narathiwat's Sukhirin district killed one person and injured 27 others. Two bombing attempts in Yingo district caused no casualties.

Fourth Army commander Lt-Gen Pisarn Watanawongkeeree said yesterday he believed the bombings and threats in Yala and Narathiwat in the past two weeks are revenge for the arrest of Nimahamud Haki Samae, a Pattani United Liberation Organisation (Pulo) leader and religious teacher who has ties to separatist movements in Indonesia. ''Mr Nimahamud, a (Pulo) leading member, was arrested and this has prompted religious teachers, or Ustaz, to carry out vengeance operations. They fear the military will find other masterminds now that we've got crucial information from arrested religious teachers,'' said Lt-Gen Pisarn.

He warned local people to be careful and ready for stricter body searches of motorcyclists and passengers in the wake of the bombings, most of which were done by people on motorcycles.

i wonder what religion they were teaching ?

[Jaws]

IMHO they should just not have the Olympics it's a complete waste of time and money or if they are going to continue having them they should make them the Drug Enhanced Olympics now that would be entertaining !

Jonny - do you remember this one? It happened about 10 years ago. I remember reading about it in all the papers while I was in Dublin, and was amazed that the Brit tabloids like The Sun didn't pick the story up. Anyway....

This old farang turned up at BKK airport, drunk as a skunk. He'd lost his passport, had no money or ticket, but swore blind that he had a Ist class reservation on a BA flight to London, with a connection on to Dublin. He was so pissed and got so worked up that he passed out at the check-in desk, and woke up a couple of days later in hospital. The cops were waiting by his bed when he came round. They'd found his name and had checked him out. He'd stayed for about three weeks in a bungalow at a very luxurious 5 star resort and had caused mayhem. Dozens of BG's in and out of the place, massive drinking sessions, shouting and bawling, the whole lot. His bar bill was astronomical. He'd paid that but when the hotel had presented him with a bill for damage, he'd told them to **** off.

But the punchline is, it turned out that this old guy was A ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOP!!!

Now you know where they got the idea for Father Jack!
