it seems to me to be some kind of sectarian violence. let's hope that they will receive heavy sentences if they are found guilty.

Just an insurgency, not necessarily sectarian.

insurgency caused based on "belief" and if that(insurgency)  causes violence, that violence  is called sectarian

The insurgency ethno-nationalist in nature and is based on grievances the local population has with Thai rule and being discriminated against with regards to employment, language, and being treated as second-rate citizens. Religion plays only a small part in it.
