Two rebel informants killed in southern Thailand
2013-09-16
Two suspected terrorists militants were killed in a battle with a combined police and military force in Yala province early yesterday.

The clash occurred about 5 a.m. after rangers and police raided a house in Muang district, acting on a tip-off that three or four armed terrorists militants were hiding there. Upon seeing the authorities, the men allegedly opened fire on them.

The security forces fired back and, after a brief gun battle, found two bodies of suspected terrorists militants. The suspects were identified as Muhammad Ayi Tayae and Abdullor Jaeni, both from Yala.

Officials believe the two men might be sympathisers of the Runda Kumpalan Kecil (RKK) separatist group and an insurgent group led by Ubaidela Rommuedee and Arba Jae-arlee. Officials said the two men had no arrest warrants out for them. They are thought to be responsible for supplying information about security officers' movements to the insurgent group.
