World
A bomb hidden near rubbish bins in a busy suburban Bangkok shopping area left seven people wounded, Thai police said on Monday.
The homemade device exploded at about 9 pm (1400 GMT) on Sunday in Ramkhamhaeng, a university area of the Thai capital, said Police colonel Narongrit Promsawan.
"Police are investigating to see what caused the explosion and who were involved. A preliminary investigation of the scene found many nails were part of the device," he told AFP.
Narongrit said police did not think the bombing was part of a broader campaign. He said none of those hurt was in a serious condition.
Deputy government spokeswoman Sunisa Lertpakawat said security forces were urgently probing who was behind the blast.
