Police officers transport confiscated components that can be used for making explosives in Samut Sakhon province, on the outskirts of Bangkok, January 16, 2012. A Lebanese suspect arrested in Bangkok led Thai police to the components on Monday, according to the police and local media. Thai authorities arrested the suspect after being warned by Israel of a possible attack in Bangkok, the deputy prime minister said on Friday, adding that police had stepped up security and he was confident the situation was under control. Credit: Reuters/Chaiwat Subprasom BANGKOK | Mon Jan 16, 2012 1:39am EST BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thai police discovered bomb-making material after the detention of a Lebanese man suspected of planning an attack, but the prime minister insisted Monday that everything was under control. Authorities beefed up security in parts of the capital and other areas popular with tourists after the United States and Israel warned Friday of a possible terrorist attack. Police detained a Lebanese man reportedly carrying a Swedish passport. Officials said he had links with Hezbollah, a Shi'ite Islamist group in Lebanon backed by Syria and Iran that is on the U.S. blacklist of foreign terrorist organizations. National police chief Priewpan Damapong told reporters the suspect, named as Atris Hussein, had given police an address where bomb-making material was being kept. Officers discovered large amount of substances that could be used to make explosives in a building in Samut Sakhon, southwest of Bangkok, including 4,380 kg of urea and 10 gallons of liquid ammonium nitrate. Priewpan said the suspect maintained that his group had not planned an attack in Thailand but intended to transport the substances to a third country. The officer declined to give the destination. Asked about the discovery, Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra told reporters: "I have been informed. I would like to ask people not to panic. We are currently in control of the situation." Defense Minister Yuthasak Sasiprapha told reporters in the northern city of Chiang Mai Sunday that Thailand was not the target, although officials have also said that areas of Bangkok frequented by Westerners and Israelis could be hit. Yuthasak said that a second suspect had managed to leave the country. Police said the detained suspect had not yet been charged with any offence. Thai officials have seemed irritated by travel advisories issued by the U.S. and Israeli governments, followed by several more since Friday, and Foreign Minister Surapong Towijakchaikul said diplomats from countries that had issued warnings would meet with him for an explanation Monday. Tourism is a big money-earner for Thailand and ministers are keen not to deter travelers, especially after the hit to tourism from severe flooding in 2011 and political unrest in 2010.
