Thai police arrest five with explosives

BANGKOK: Thai police said they arrested a team of five men armed with explosives on Monday after a tip-off that bomb attacks were planned near the seat of government in Bangkok.

The first man was found near Government House while the later arrests were made at a house in Bangkok.

The detentions came a day after a rally by anti-government "Red Shirt" protesters and a day ahead of a rival, royalist "Yellow Shirt" demonstration due to be held in the same part of the capital.
