The village pavilion of a new redshirt village in Songkhla province was burnt down early Tuesday, hours after its opening by redshirt leaders and supporters in the South.
On Monday evening redshirt leader Thida Tavornset Tojirakarn and supporters held an opening ceremony for a red-shirt village near the now-burnt-down pavilion in tambon Bangkae, in Songkhla’s Jana district.
The police speculated that the incident took place around 2am. There were no eyewitnesses and the arsonist is not yet known.
Currently, police suspect the arson attack was done by political rivals, who were not happy with constant attempts by the United Front for Democracy against Dictatorship (UDD) to set up red-shirt villages in the South.
