BANGKOK, Aug. 9 (Xinhua) -- Police on Friday evening recovered an improvised explosive device in a Bangkok cloth market.
Police said the improvised explosive device was attached to a power strip and had been placed inside a shop in the market.
"The bomb found today (Friday) was of the same design as seven others believed to be placed in the Pratunam and Siam Square shopping areas and linked to Bangkok bombings on August 2," Police said on TV.
