Two people were killed and two others injured in two separate shootings in the southernmost province of Pattani on Thursday evening.

 

In Sai Buri district, a Narathiwat-based paramilitary ranger volunteer Pathompong Kaewthong, 24, and his wife Nureehan Dengla, 22, were shot and wounded in Tambon Kadunong while riding home on their motorcycle after shopping at a local market. 

 

Two men on another motorcycle overtook them on Sai Buri-Kapor Road and the passenger shot Pathompong in the head. A stray bullet also hit Nureehan's right leg. 

 

Police found that Pathompong was on leave and visiting his wife's hometown - they suspect that the assailants had been monitoring him for a while because he worked for the state military and launched a gun attack on him as part of the ongoing unrest in the South.

 

In Yarang district, ice-cream vendor Rosadee Nidae, 45, was shot dead at 6pm after parking his tricycle at the Jeh Bo Ngor Market in Tambon Khao Toom. A stray bullet also hit the knee of a bystander, papaya salad vendor Kholiyoh Manging, 54. 

 

Police found that the shooter had brazenly walked among the shoppers, then pulled out a gun and shot Rosadee twice before fleeing with an accomplice, who had kept his motorcycle running so they could make a speedy getaway. 

 

Police are trying to establish if the second attack stemmed from the ongoing unrest or from a personal conflict.

These perps would be caught if they had vape machines or were caught smoking on a beach.

They are tolerated because of the mai pen rai policy here.

Stop reporting about the south, then they wont get any publicity at all.

Bang away folks   ...   ...   ...

Always a magnet for insurgency retaliation.

But better them being attacked than regular army soldiers, right Prawit?
