Troops deployed throughout capital city of Thailand
Thailand’s Army chief Prayuth Chan-ocha has ordered deployment of troops in 1,868 communities in all 50 districts of Bangkok and adjacent provinces for civic action, intelligence collection and prevention of bombings and sabotage, an army source said.
The army chief’s instruction follows the explosion at an apartment in central Nonthaburi province on Oct. 5, in which four people were killed, including the suspected bomb maker, and nine others wounded, a local media reported.
Intelligence agencies were convinced there could be more sabotage attempts and bombings of important installations, the source said.
