At least 15 Thai market traders were wounded Thursday when a bomb was thrown into a camp in Bangkok where they were staging a protest vigil against attempts to evict them, police said.
The explosion took place at 2:00 am at Klong Toey market, next to the capital's biggest slum, where about 300 protesters were demonstrating against new management of the site.
The bomb was apparently tossed into the camp by an unidentified man on a nearby footbridge, Bangkok police said. Two people suffered serious injuries, they added.
The attack did not appear to be linked to an anti-government protest movement that has occupied Government House in Bangkok since late August, where there have been a series of small bombings in recent weeks...
