webfact Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Muslim man arrested after AK-47 found in kitchen well in Narathiwat By The Nation NARATHIWAT: -- Police and troops arrested a Muslim man after an AK-47 assault rifle was found hidden in his house in Narathiwat’s Ragnae district early on Friday. However, authorities did not charge him with being an insurgent although the rifle had been used five times in terror attacks in Ragnae. Abdulloh Lateh, 53, faced a charge of having illegal firearms in his possession after authorities checked his background and found that he did not have a record of being involved in insurgency activities in the deep South. Police and rangers went to Abdulloh’s house in Moo 6 village in Tambon Marue Botok at 3am. Initially, he would not allow the authorities to go inside his house and authorities spent 10 minutes persuading him to open his door. Authorities found only a cartridge of ammunition for an Ak-47 rifle before they found the gun in a well in the kitchen. Authorities used a magnetic tied to a rope to recover the gun from the well. Abdulloh said the gun belonged to his friend.

When authorities imagine that they are so adept at the game, and have everybody involved on record, it can only end in tears. IMO, proper terrorists/insurgents do not get caught until after the atrocity has been committed. Whoever made that statement needs dragging across the coals.

RawboneFunksta Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 So despite the AK being used 5 times in terror attacks he was no arrested. Mmmn seems logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55Jay Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Army/Police didn't just decide on a whim to visit this guy's house at 0300. It also might not be a coincidence they had a magnet handy to fish the weapon out of the well hole. Mr. Lateh might be more useful walking around, rather than in a jail cell.

I wonder how they figured out that AK had been used 5 times in terror attacks. After a shoot up, do they return weapons to insurgents? One Ak looks similar to another, unless carved "bambi" or something into gun stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do they know its the same AK ? Super fast ballistics tests completed in hours ? I don`t think so . I`m sure there are a few million of them in the hands of insurgents around the globe at any one time . . If the authorities think there is only 1 AK in that hood they are fooling themselves .

Kiwiken Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Could also be he kept the gun for his "friend" because not keeping it for his friend could lead to harm for his family or him. He may be an active Participant or a sympathiser. We have no way of knowing. Assumptions prove nothing. If he was an active suspect the Police given the level of insurgency would have moved against him. As to the gun having been used 5 times that would be speculation ballistics prove a lot but as said since 120 million Kalashnikov type rifles have been made in 7.63X39 You would have to have the most accurate ballistics testing in the world. or did they know this from the 1 round found?
