The police source said Police Lieutenant General Suchart Teerasawat, an inspector-general who has been assigned to lead a police team to seek cooperation from Malaysia, returned to Thailand on Friday. Mr. Suchart is now in Yala, waiting for Malaysia to help try and arrest the suspect in the shrine blast after learning the man had sneaked out of Thailand through Narathiwat’s Sungai Kolok district.
