Roadside bomb blast in Pattani kills a soldier and wounds another



PATTANI: -- One soldier was killed and another seriously wounded in a roadside bomb blast while they were patrolling on Highway 409 in Khok Pho district of Pattani Monday morning.

Khok Pho police said the explosion happened while a team of soldiers from Pattani Task Force 21 was patrolling on the highway.

As the foot patrolmen were walking past a cemetery opposite Napradoo village marketplace, a home-made bomb planted on the roadside was detonated.

Sergeant Major Niphon Niyomchai, 55, and Corporal Apirak Kumkhunthod, 25, were hit by bomb shrapnel and seriously wounded.

They were admitted to Pattani hospital where Niphon was announced dead on arrival while Apirak suffered minor chest pain from the force of the explosion.

Security forces were sent in while explosive ordnance disposal police searched the areas for more hidden bombs.

Security officials in the deep South were placed on full alert as they feared of increased insurgency attacks to mark the 11th anniversary of the Krue Se mosques massacre is due tomorrow.

No, there are two terrorist groups in Thailand and this was the other one.

I thought Prayut just gained absolute power?

I keep saying the same thing :- the solution, is to give them 4 of the provenances but on the understanding that Thailand will provide nothing from the date of exchange.

Let the separatists have their state but warn them if there are ANY acts of terrorism it will to treated as an act of war.

It must be far cheaper in lives and money to police a border between the sea and Malaya, than it is to keep walking among the enemy.

Why then they have gotten what they want, and if you give them 4, they will want more provenances, they are like a decease and will just spread if they get their own way

No,no,no.................the World is full of failed nations and we don`t need another one:Even if Thailand doesn`t provide any aid if these provinces gain independence,you can bet that our Western goverments would be more than happy to fork out billions of the taxpayers money.

About it's Thailand own gilt that can be talking about.

But when you invite Muslim to Thailand for stay same as Thai people they think they own.

Thailand never had to invite Muslim to stay in Thailand. As a tourist that is OK so only tourist visa for them and not non immigrant O or working visa

There are several terrorist organisations in Thailand especially in the South.

The UDD isn't recognised as one outside of farang opinions, Intelligence sources don't have the UDD down as a terror group either, nothing shows up in places like global security.

Chulanont who was PM Back in 2006 also stated he thought the southern Insurgency was financed by restaurant in Malaysia, amongst other places.

The insurgency goes well beyond simple Islamic Jihad.
