Bangkok bombers may have used stickers to mark targets
2012-02-21
Police investigating the failed plot to bomb Israeli diplomats in Bangkok by a group of Iranians have discovered stickers posted on mile-long stretch of road that officers believe could have marked spots where attacks might be carried out.

The stickers bearing the word "SEJEAL" were also found in a room in the Bangkok house where one of the "sticky" bombs accidentally exploded, leading to the capture of three of the ring.

A Thai court issued an arrest warrant for a fifth Iranian, Nourzi Shayan Ali Akbar, 57, who was seen on CCTV footage leaving the house hours before the blast and was found to have caught a flight to Tehran. An arrest warrant was also issued for Leila Rohani, 31, who rented the Bangkok house but left for Tehran days earlier.
