CHON BURI, May 29 -- Military and police personnel raided a house in Chon Buri province, believed to be a lèse-majesté group hideout, seizing evidence and arresting two suspects.

 

The authorities searched house number 9/74 in Bang Saen's Maha Nakhon housing estate, in the Chon Buri provincial seat and found documents and CDs they said that would incite lèse-majesté among the public, along with documents and receipts for the purchase more than 100 military-grade weapons, including M79 grenades and launchers, AK47 assault rifles and explosives, as well as a list of high profile gunmen for hire and protest clothing.

 

In a car parked in front of the house police found an 11mm handgun with 60 cartridges, and documents about setting up a radio station.

 

Caretakers identified as Apirat and Krishsuda Kunasaen were arrested. The authorities said the house belonged to Manaschaya Ketkaew, who has already fled the country. (MCOT online news)

Be interesting to see where such weapons are for sale.
