Military court charges two in Bangkok blast
2015-11-24
[AlJizz] A Thai military court has charged two men police accused of carrying out a deadly bombing at a Bangkok shrine that killed 20 people and left more than 120 wounded. The pair, identified as Adem Karadag and Yusufu Miefaili, faced 10 charges on Tuesday in connection with the August 17 blast at the Erawan Shrine.

Officials said there was no political or religious motivation behind the attack. They say the explosion was revenge by a people-smuggling network against Thai authorities for breaking up their operation.

The two have been held at an army base since their arrests in August and September. They are being tried at a military court, where cases of national security have been handled since the army seized power in a coup in May.
