Iranian bomber blows off his own legs as grenade bounces back
Thu 16 Feb 2012 - 22:09
A bungling Iranian bomber blew off his own legs when he hurled a grenade
at Thai police outside a Bangkok school - which bounced off a tree and
then exploded at his feet.
A bizarre sequence of explosions in the capital of Bangkok started this
morning when a stash of explosives blew off the roof of a house occupied
by three Iranians.
Two of the men quickly ran away while Saeid Moradi, who was seriously wounded, staggered out and tried to wave down a taxi.
Covered in blood, the driver refused to take him, and so he hurled a
grenade at the vehicle. When police arrived on the scene he then tried
to throw another at officers - but it bounced off a tree, landed at his
feet, and blew off his legs.
Moradi, who was taken to hospital, injured four people in the blasts
which come the day after Israeli diplomats were targeted in simultaneous
car bombings, also believed to have been carried out by Iranians.
Photographs and video footage of the wounded Moradi showed him covered
in dark soot on a pavement strewn with broken glass. He lay in front of a
Thai primary and secondary school, head raised as if he was attempting
to sit up or look around.
Another government minister implied Israel would seek revenge, without mentioning Iran explicitly.
And public security minister Yitzhak Aharonovitch told Israel Radio: 'We
know who carried out the terror attacks, we know who sent them, and
Israel will settle the score with them.'
More explosives were found at Moradi's house, in the Ekamai area of
central Bangkok, which police say he had been renting with two others.
He is believed to have arrived in Bangkok, from the southern Thai resort of Phuket, on February 8
