Thai insurgent gunned down in firefight
[Bangkok Post] A top Runda Kumpulan Kecil (RKK) insurgent was gunned down during a standoff with Thai security forces in Pattani province. The death of Sobueri Jehe was confirmed Wednesday by military spokesman Thanavee Suvannarat.

Thanavee said eight police officers were on patrol in two trucks in Yarang district when three men having a conversation on the side of the road raised their suspicion on Tuesday. He said one policeman approached the men and asked to check their identities. Two of them opened fire and ran off into a rubber plantation while the other fled on a motorbike. The patrol pursued the two who opened fire that led to a firefight which ended with three policemen wounded and both suspects dead.

Thanavee said one of the dead men was later identified as Sobueri, a leading figure in the RKK. The other dead suspect, Yusoh Jehlong, had three arrest warrants out against him.

According to Thanavee, the provincial court had approved 18 separate arrests warrants for Sobueri, who had been detained four times previously for violence in the province. He did not say why Sobueri had been freed each time.

Footage from CCTV cameras had earlier proved that Sobueri was behind the gruesome murder of Sunisa Boonyen, a teacher who was gunned down in her car on Oct 28, 2016. The attack also wounded her friend.
