Insurgents shoot four volunteers in Pattani

By The Nation

 

 

Insurgents disguised as army troops gunned down four tambon defence volunteers in Pattani's Yarang district on Thursday at noon and took away their rifles, police said.

 

Police said the four defence volunteers from Tambon Prachan were guarding Ban Bukoh School in the tambon when the insurgents arrived in army uniforms.

 

They pretended to be soldiers visiting the post before they opened fire, the authorities said.

 

The insurgents then took four HK-33 rifles and fled the scene without harming the teachers and students.

 

They also left road spikes behind to try to slow down the authorities that might try to hunt them, the police said.

 

The four were identified as Sulaiman Wae-useng, Muhammad Teteng, Abdulloh Saleh and Buaraheng Ji.

As does the rest of the world - equal opportunity for all peoples of every faith and ideology.

Beginning in the 20th Century to the present the death toll from wars was about 151 million.

Thai authorities intend to invite separatist group Barisan Revolusi Nasional (BRN) to the negotiating table in a move to restore peace in the deep South

Thai Chief negotiator and former Fourth Army Region Commander General Udomchai said BRN’s violent stance was not acceptable. Udomchai told the peace facilitator that the Thai government will set guidelines for peace talks.

Apparently the insurgents aren't interested in Udomchai's guidelines for peace talks.
