Early yesterday morning, some 30 police and military officers as well as officials from the provincial authority raided the home of Prapas Rojanapitak, a 67-year-old red-shirt leader in Trang, one of the southern provinces hit by the explosions.
He was taken to the local police station for questioning and later driven to a military camp in Nakhon Si Thammarat. Sources said the military is expected to fly him to Bangkok for further interrogation.
