Former terror suspect slain in southern Thailand
2013-04-19
A former terrorist militant suspect who survived three ambushes was gunned down at his home and another villager was critically wounded by a bomb in Pattani's Yaring district on Thursday.

Police say Yusoh Mateeyoh was killed in his vegetable garden this morning. Yusoh was formerly a wanted terrorist militant suspect. He turned himself in to authorities to demonstrate his innocence and his name was later taken off the wanted list. He survived three earlier ambushes, and told his wife he did not expect to survive the next one and she should prepare to receive his body for burial.

Also in Yaring district, another civilian was seriously injured by a bomb blast near a security checkpoint on Thursday afternoon. The explosion occurred about 1 p.m. and the victim was taken to the hospital. No other details were available.
