ONE of two insurgents who rode up on a motorcycle to a water pumping station at Yala’s Suan Si Muang Dam in the dead of the night got badly injured when the improvised explosive device he was carrying to place there went off beforehand, Matichon newspaper said today (Jan. 22).

 

The injured insurgent, Mr. Nud Tanilo, 26, whose left arm got twisted and his face badly burnt from the force of the blast, was taken by rescuers to Yala Centre Hospital.

 

At 8 a.m. this morning Pol. Col. Panya Trirat, superintendent of Mueang Yala police station, together with Explosive Ordnance Disposal and forensic officers carefully inspected the water pumping station as it was feared this might be a trap to lure them in and then set off another bomb.

Hope the hospital made him pay for treatment upfront..................and join the queue!

About time all acts of terrorism carried a life sentence or choice of suicide pill - waste of time trying to rehabilitate these people and a waste of time feeding them

Hoist with his own petard!

Only twisted his arm? Should have been a bigger bomb.
