Suthep M79 grenades fired from behind King Rama VI statue

 

Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban Thursday night urged Silom people to stay away from the red-shirt people at the Lumpini Park by more than 400 metres.

 

He said the M79 grenades, which injured more than 75 people on Silom Road, were fired from behind the King Rama VI statute where the red-shirt protesters were demonstrating.

 

 

He said if the protesters were staying away more than 400 metres from the line of red-shirt protesters, they would be safe from the M79 attacks.

 

Suthep said it was too dangerous for police and troops to go into the rally site at the park to try to arrest the assailants at night.
