Two Buddhist monks, policeman killed in south Thailand
2004-01-24
Two Buddhist monks and a policeman have been killed in Muslim-majority southern Thailand in attacks believed to be linked to separatist unrest in the region, the government and police said on Saturday.
"Unrest" must be a synonym for "murder."
"Two monks were killed while they were walking to receive alms and one monk was seriously hurt at about 6:00am (local time) in separate but simultaneous attacks", police in Yala told AFP. "A policeman was also shot dead late Friday in Ying-or district in neighbouring Narathiwat province."

#1  The Buddhist Thais are about to get a bit unrestful themselves, methinks. One does not go about murdering monks in Thailand.
