Crime Violence Erupts Again in Yala: Husband and Wife Shot Dead Outside Their Home
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A fresh act of violence has rocked the province of Yala, as a husband and wife were gunned down outside their home in the Raman district on the evening of 17 May. Authorities are investigating whether the fatal shooting was driven by a personal vendetta or part of a wider attempt to destabilise the area. The incident occurred at around 19:30 in Moo 2, Jakwa Subdistrict, Raman District. Upon receiving reports of a shooting, police, military personnel, and internal security officials rushed to the scene. They discovered the lifeless body of Mr. Buraeheng, 48, lying face down in front of his house. His wife, Ms. Sitimaliyeh, 46, was critically injured and rushed to hospital, but was later pronounced dead. Initial findings suggest the couple had been sitting outside their home when unidentified gunmen approached and opened fire before fleeing the scene. Authorities are working to determine whether the attack stemmed from a personal conflict or was part of a broader campaign of violence by insurgent elements in the region. The police collected forensic evidence and interviewed witnesses as the investigation continues. Southern Thailand, particularly the provinces of Yala, Pattani, and Narathiwat, has long experienced unrest linked to separatist movements, though personal disputes are also a common cause of violent incidents.

CCTV Footage Captures Motorcycle Crash on Rama II Road
Not back but the side, from the looks of it. Probably misjudged distances by inches and got his wheel or handlebar caught in a tire and that was that. No way the truck driver could have done anything to prevent this. -

Accident Man Killed After Being Hit by Train in Khon Kaen
Picture courtesy of Matichon. A incident occurred in the early hours of morning of 18 May, when a special express train travelling from Bangkok Apiwat to Nong Khai struck and killed an unidentified man who was lying across the railway tracks in Nam Phong district, Khon Kaen. The incident took place at approximately 04:50 near kilometre marker 488/7, between Nam Phong and Huai Siew stations. Authorities from Nam Phong Police Station, rescue workers, and medical personnel were dispatched to the scene following a report of a fatal train collision. Upon arrival, emergency responders discovered the dismembered body of a man believed to be between 50 and 60 years old. His body had been severed in two, with his limbs and skull severely crushed. Blood and brain matter were found on the front of the train, and rescue workers collected body parts scattered along the tracks before transferring the remains to Nam Phong Hospital for further examination. According to Pol Lt Col Thaworn Laophaeng, Deputy Inspector at Nam Phong Police Station, the train driver reported seeing a man lying motionless on the tracks. Despite sounding the horn repeatedly in an attempt to alert him, the man remained in place. The train, which had accelerated to climb an incline, was unable to brake in time, resulting in the fatal impact. No identification documents were found on the deceased, and as of this report, no missing person reports matching the victim’s description have been filed with the local police. Residents living near the tracks stated that the man had been seen wandering near the railway line in the days leading up to the incident. Authorities are continuing their investigation to determine the man’s identity and to notify any next of kin so that appropriate religious rites may be carried out.
