Thailand court sentences two men to death for 2015 Bangkok bombing
The trial of two ethnic Uighur men accused of the 2015 Erawan Shrine bombing in Bangkok concludes on Thursday. The attack killed 20 people and wounded more than 100 – the deadliest in Thai history. Eleven years later, little is known about the network behind it. Victims say investigators never interviewed them. Human Rights Watch says questions remain over who ordered and carried out the attack. Thai police have refused to comment. Both suspects allege torture. There is no memorial at the shrine, and many would prefer to forget. Regardless of the verdict, the mystery is unlikely to be solved.
