(Photo supplied by Royal Thai Police)The Criminal Court has approved the first round of detention of seven arms buyer suspects, two of whom have been allowed bail. The seven men were charged with buying and having in possession bullets and explosives of which permits cannot be issued. The soldiers reportedly sent the bullets and grenades by Kerry Express (Thailand) mail service to the suspects before they were arrested with the evidence. Four of the buyer suspects -- Mr Prachidchai, Mr Natthapong, Pol L/Cpl Krittipas and Mr Natthapol -- sought bail. The remaining three suspects were in custody in the provinces and will be sent to Bangkok later.
