Six civilians gunned down in southern Thailand
2009-10-22
Suspected Islamic terrorists militants have shot dead six civilians over a two-day period in a series of attacks across Thailand's restive south, police said Thursday.

A Muslim member of the local council in the Than To district of Yala province was killed at his home early Thursday morning, police said. The previous night a 46-year-old former member of the Rangae district council in neighbouring Narathiwat province was also shot dead. A 54-year-old Muslim man, who police said was a military informant, was killed in a drive-by shooting a few hours earlier as he returned from a market in the same district.

Three Thai construction workers were also targeted on Wednesday afternoon. Two of them, men aged 46 and 42, were shot dead in the Si Sakhon district of Narathiwat, while a female worker shot in Pattani province later died of her injuries.
