| Two Thai election officials were injured Sunday, ambushed as they transported ballot boxes by car in Narathiwat's Si Sakhon district, while a bombing occurred in Ruso district in the afternoon. Two election workers were shot by gunmen hiding on the side the road as they were transporting ballot boxes in Si Sakhon. Both of them have been hospitalised for medical treatment. In another violent attack on general election day, a bombing took place in Ruso district, a half-hour after the polls closed. The explosion happened as army rangers escorted election workers carrying ballot boxes. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. |
