Three killed in attacks in Thailand's Muslim south BANGKOK -- Two Muslims and a Buddhist have been killed in southern Thailand in two separate incidents bearing the hallmarks of reprisal attacks in the violence-plagued, predominantly Muslim region. Four suspected Muslim militants armed with automatic rifles attacked the district office of a Buddhist volunteer militia in Pattani province late on Thursday, killing one Buddhist and wounding another, police said. Less than an hour later, a hand grenade was thrown into a small mosque in a nearby district where about a dozen Muslims were praying. Two people were killed and eight wounded, police said. |
