Bangkok bomb trial of Chinese Uighurs begins after delays
None
BANGKOK- The trial of two Chinese ethnic Uighur men suspected of carrying out a deadly bomb attack in Bangkok in 2015 began on Tuesday after three postponements due to defence lawyers being unable to find suitable interpreters for their clients.
Fourteen foreigners were among 20 people killed in the Aug. 17, 2015, bombing at Bangkok's Erawan Shrine, the worst attack of its kind on Thai soil.
Yusufu Mieraili and Adem Karadag, also known as Bilal Mohammed, appeared at a military court in Bangkok dressed in brown prison uniforms. They face 10 charges, including murder and illegal possession of explosives.
