PHNOM PENH, Jan. 8 (Xinhua) -- One of the two suspects wanted in connection with Friday's foiled bomb plot in downtown Phnom Penh has been arrested, English-language daily newspaper the Phnom Penh Post on Thursday quoted a minister as saying.
The police detained the suspect following a detailed probe, said government spokesman and Information Minister Khieu Kanharith, while declining to give the identity and further information on basis of confidential consideration.
"We are collecting new information to arrest other suspects," he said.
The three explosive devices were found on Friday near the Ministry of National Defense and the TV3 headquarters, and later safely detonated without causing any damage and casualty.
According to the analysis of the bomb parts from the Cambodian Mine Action Center (CMAC), they were made from aerosol cans packed with TNT, would have been noisy, but not destructive and only of little danger to the public.
Right after the accident, Khieu Kanharith said that the suspects committed acts of terrorism, which had affected the social order and security.
