Suspected Insurgent Gunned Down by Police in Southern Thailand

On Monday Police and government security forces in southern Thailand’s Pattani Province killed a suspected insurgent wanted on nine different arrest warrants.

The government unit surrounded a house at a rubber plantation in Nong Chik district on Pattani about 3am, acting on information that insurgents led by Rosali Lamso were hiding there. The siege then extended into daylight hours.

Officials called on the insurgents to surrender. Religious and community leaders were also brought to the scene and also tried to persuade the insurgents believed to be in there to surrender.

No one surrendered, instead, gunshots were fired at the southern Thailand government force, which fired back, according to police.

When the shooting ended, the government troops cleared the area and found Rosali’s dead body.

Mr Rosali had been wanted under nine arrest warrants by police:
