george Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Bomb hoaxer who called on own phone arrested, jailed BANGKOK: -- A Metropolitan Electricity Authority employee who made a bomb threat against Government House yesterday morning was quickly arrested and sentenced to three months in jail in the afternoon. Somjit Promsak, 50, a C5 worker, was arrested at his house in Lat Krabang district about noon by Phaya Thai police. He admitted telephoning 191 police on his mobile, giving the false name Somsak na Nakhon and saying he had planted explosives in three places at Government House that morning. Police tracked him down from his phone number and arrested him after an explosives unit had combed Government House and found no sign of a bomb. The suspect told police his crime was not motivated by any personal conflict, but by drunkenness. He had a drinking session with friends on Wednesday night before waking up to join the protest against the privatisation of the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand. He was arraigned in Dusit Court and sentenced to six months in jail, cut to three months because he confessed. --The Post 2004-04-23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_Pat_Pong Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 He wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed was he ? Used his own mobile and inadvertantly gave them his number. Little wonder he pleaded guilty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mouse Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 So let's deport him. As a matter of fact let's deport even Thais that do not have a 400,000 Baht annual Income. I think this would really be a quiet place suddenly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
