September 09, 2015 19:11

One of the two Indians detained in connection with the Bangkok bombing and subsequently released has been given a clean chit by security agencies while a discreet probe is underway regarding the other person who hails from Kashmir.

The two Indian nationals, whose names have been withheld, were called for questioning by Bangkok police after they were seen on CCTV talking to a foreign suspect wanted in Thailand's deadliest bombing at a temple last month that left 20 people dead and over 100 injured.

The Indian who hails from Bengaluru has been working with a Information Technology service company in Thailand and his record here was found clear, official sources said today. The youth, who is a divorcee, has been living in Bangkok for sometime and working for a private company which is engaged in providing online solutions to their clients, the sources said.
