Seven gunned down in southern Thailand
2009-01-24
Terrorists Suspected insurgents have shot dead seven people in attacks across Thailand's far south, where a bloody separatist rebellion has been raging for five years, police said on Saturday.

Four construction workers were shot dead on Saturday afternoon at a building site for a bridge in Yala, one of four southern provinces hit by the unrest. Also in Yala province, a 46-year-old man was shot dead outside a mosque after Friday prayers. Police told reporters that he was likely targeted because terrorists militants suspected he was working as a police informant. Elsewhere in the same province on Friday, a 65-year-old woman was shot dead outside her house and a 30-year-old man was killed in a drive-by shooting as he went to feed fish at a local pond.
