Four killed, nine wounded in southern Thailand |
2008-09-16 |
At least four people were killed and nine wounded in a series of bomb and shooting attacks across Thailand's restive, Muslim-majority south, police said Tuesday. A Muslim father and son were killed in a drive-by shooting Tuesday morning as they returned home from tapping rubber trees in Yala province, near the southern border with Malaysia, they said. A 48-year-old Muslim man was shot dead early Tuesday when three militants in a pickup opened fire as he was sweeping outside his home in nearby Narathiwat province, they added. An 80-year-old Muslim man was shot dead in neighbouring Pattani province late Monday as he walked home from prayers at his local mosque. |
