Thailand: bomber seen on CCTV, no claims of responsibility
The death-toll in yesterday's Bangkok bombing remains at 22, as the police release CCTV footage of a young man they believe to be the bomber leaving a heavy back-pack by the relevant bench in the grounds of the shrine.  No-one has yet claimed responsibility for the attack and yesterday's statement by the Prime Minister pointing the finger at the opposition 'redshirt' movement has been retracted. One theory that seems to be gaining local momentum is that the attack may have been 'in revenge' for Thailand's recent repatriation to China of 109 Uirghur men that the Chinese defined as Muslim-separatists and potential terrorists.
Bangkok: A revenge attack for the deportation of Uighur Muslims from Thailand to China has emerged as a key focus of investigations into Monday's bombing in the Thai capital.

A massive hunt is under way for a man wearing a yellow T-shirt who was seen in security camera video leaving a backpack on a bench at a Hindu shrine where a blast killed 22 people and wounded at least 120.

"It is quite clear that he is the perpetrator in this case," Prawut Thavornsiri, a spokesman for Thai national police, said.

Police sources said Uighur militants may be responsible for the blast, according to reports in the Bangkok Post and other Thai media.
