Suspected militant shot dead in rubber plantation

 

A suspected southern militant was shot dead by paramilitary rangers in a rubber plantation in Pattani’s Muang district on Friday (July 14).

 

The victim, 44-year old Paoyee Tasamor, was, on Thursday, held in military custody by virtue of the martial law under the suspicion that he was a militant.

 

On Friday, Paoyee was escorted by a paramilitary unit to a rubber plantation in Village 4, Tambon Pakaharung to search for weapons which were suspected to be buried somewhere in the plantation.

 

Paoyee led the rangers to a spot where weapons were believed to be hidden and was ordered to dig them up.

after reading this article. I believe it's an extra judicial killing. No more than that.

Another article mentioned that he was a suspect in the Big C bombing and the 2nd suspect to be shot in a week. Someone dont want a court case about this bombing to take place. The truth about this bomb was that the vehicle was parked with its one wheel on the pavement to attract attention and the bombers phoned the mall to warn about the big bomb before it went off. This allowed the people to move to the opposite side of the mall. Rumor has it yhat this bomb was not about terrorism but about a muslim mall that recently opened and which needed more clients
