^ Here's more on the above man, with additional photos. It really does appear that he is the one in all the CCTV video with the backpack.

This guy may well be involved, but I'm not at all convinced that he's the man in the yellow t-shirt. Too skinny and narrow-shouldered IMO.

"Thai police: Suspect acknowledges being near bomb scene"
"BANGKOK (AP) — Thai police said Wednesday a prime suspect in Bangkok's deadly bombing has admitted to being near the shrine where the attack took place but denied placing the bomb, as other clues pointed increasingly to a link with the trafficking of a minority ethnic group from China via Thailand."
...
"Thai authorities said the suspect's fingerprints also matched those on a bottle of bomb-making material found in an apartment that was raided this past weekend."
...
"Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha said officials knew from their investigation that people involved in the bombing were about to flee the country and had traced one of the suspects to Aranyaprathet district in Sa Kaeo province, a crossing point to Cambodia.
Reports in the Bangkok Post newspaper and Cambodia's Phnom Penh Post, however, gave a different account. Citing unnamed sources, they said the man was arrested at the airport in the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh, as he was about to catch a departing flight and was turned over to Thai authorities at the border."
Comment: So shouldn't that reward go to the person(s) who caught him at the Phnom Penh airport? If not, this is police corruption at the highest level.

Erawan bombing: Uyghurs, Turkey, & passports … or Thai human trafficking, corruption … and Uyghur patsies?
I’m still an agnostic on the Uyghurs dunnit theory, at least as far as the “aggrieved Uyghurs bombed the Erawan shrine to kill Chinese tourists in revenge for repatriation of Uyghurs to PRC” way.
The only things we know for sure right now is that: a) the Thai government is anxious to manage & control this story, b) the Thai police leaks like a sieve and c) one has to wonder if the government’s main priority is to put a pretty frame on this story and hang it up as soon as possible.
There appears to be a definite Uyghur element in the case, judging by the detentions of one suspect with a Uyghur name holding a PRC passport (that looks genuine) and another guy with a clumsily forged Turkish passport who, it is suspected, is probably a Uyghur. Add to that a big stack of bogus Turkish passports — an inescapable element in the conveyor belt of PRC Uyghurs to havens in Turkey — and there’s the makings of a plausible Uyghur angle.

Re: Huge explosion rocks central Bangkok
And there's still the matter of that reward. Before the crime was solved and before any "suspects" were proven guilty, some of the Bkk police force were out enjoying their "lottery winnings". Something just doesn't smell right to me...

Police officers joke with a key suspect in last month's Bangkok bombing, yellow shirt, identified by Thai police as Yusufu Mierili, also as Yusufu Mieraili, traveling on a Chinese passport, but his nationality remains unconfirmed, around a central Bangkok shopping center during a reenactment for the Aug. 17 bombing at Bangkok's popular Erawan Shrine that left 20 people dead and more than 120 injured,

Erawan bombing: Thai probers in Malaysia to see suspect
The chief investigator looking into the deadly Erawan Shrine blast flew to Malaysia yesterday to seek more information and meet with a detainee believed to be a prime suspect in the attack, an informed source said.
Deputy national police chief Pol General Chakthip Chaijinda led the team, which included Central Investigation Bureau chief Pol Lt-General Chaiwatketworachai and the deputy chief of the Metropolitan Police Bureau, Pol Maj-General Chanthep Sesawet.
They were expected to meet Malaysia’s national police chief Khalid Abu Bakar over reports that the key suspect may have been detained during recent raids of many apartments and rented homes in Kuala Lumpur.
