Man gunned down at public market in southern Thailand
2007-11-08
A man was gunned down by presumed terrorists insurgents in a market in the violence-ridden province of Narathiwat. The authorities are considering that it may have been a case of mistaken identity, as the victim borrowed a vehicle belonging to a friend who is a police officer in order to go shopping.

Dee Sawaengchertphong was shot to death by unidentified assailants in front of a fresh market in Ruso municipality, which was crowded with shoppers on Thursday morning. Two gunmen, both passengers on motorcycles driven by others, opened fire on the victim as he was approaching the vehicle with his purchases.

Meanwhile, the body of a soldier killed by a bomb explosion in Pattani's Panare district was retrieved from a canal on Thursday morning. Three soldiers were killed in the bombing of a bridge, but the body of Police Captain Chana Patrat fell into the canal and could not be recovered until later.
