Terrorists Suspected separatist militants have shot and killed five Muslim villagers, including a six-year-old boy, in the latest violence in Thailand's insurgency-plagued south, police said on Sunday.
A 45-year-old man and his wife, 39, were shot dead in an ambush early Saturday on their way to work at a rubber plantation in Pattani province.
