- Published
The Erawan Shrine in Bangkok had opened for worship again, two days after a bomb blast killed at least 20 people.
As Bangkok's residents mourn the dead Thai police are hunting for a man suspected of planting the pipe bomb on Monday night. They now say they believe he had support from "a network.
Here are the latest images from the shrine:
Visitors and worshippers returned to the shrine, watched by TV crews
Shrine workers carried out their duties among the visitors
The debris and human remains which littered the area were earlier cleared away
Minor damage could be seen on one of the faces of the statue of Brahma, the Hindu creation god.
By Wednesday morning a crater created by the bomb blast was filled in with concrete, but remained cordoned off.
This was the scene on Monday night at the scene of the blast, at a bench by the shrine. A nearby iron fence was bent by the force of the explosion.
The next morning police officers were still searching for clues around the cordoned-off shrine.
Meanwhile workers cleaned up the debris at the site.
As Tuesday wore on, Bangkok residents laid candles, flowers, and messages of support at the shrine.
