May 31, 20179 yr From Bangkok Post Another pipe bomb was found Tuesday afternoon near Ratchadaphisek Road and the Thailand Cultural Centre MRT Station, sparking public concerns that another bomb attack could be imminent, despite security assurances by the authorities. National police chief Chakthip Chaijinda said no connection has been found between the discovered bomb and the hospital blast at this stage of the investigation, but initial findings show the bomb, which was assembled in an 20-centimetre long metal pipe, resembled the device used in the Ratchaprasong area several years ago. The device was said to be a steel pipe about 20cm long with a fuse. The pipe was in a green plastic basket inside a black plastic bag. The fuse was attached to a mosquito coil that had been ignited before being dampened and made ineffective by the rain. http://www.bangkokpost.com/news/politics/1259310/pipe-bomb-found-near-mrt-station
