2 rubber workers killed in southern Thailand
Two rubber plantation workers were killed in Yala province yesterday morning in what authorities believe to be part of on-going terror campaigns by Muslim separatists. Narathiwat's Rusoh district police station chief Colonel Sombat Boonpho said the two workers had been identified as Chomyae Kathong, 51, and Madaoh Dokho, 52. Chomyae came from Ubon Rachathani, while Madaoh was from Yala's Raman district. They worked at the plantation in Rusoh district of Jittra Chaimongkol. Sombat said the two left their living quarters to work in the plantation early in the morning but were found dead at 7.30am. Their throats had been slit and they had been stabbed repeatedly. Sombat said separatists had attacked rubber plantation workers before Rusoh, Raman and Pattani's Kapho district as part of ongoing terror campaign.Posted by: Dan Darling 2004-04-12 |
