Another suspect in two bomb attacks has voiced interest in undergoing a six-month re-education programme instead of facing legal action. The suspect was arrested last Saturday in Pupoh village.

On October 29, a Songkhla court dropped legal proceedings against two other suspects after they volunteered for the re-education.
Fourth Army Area chief Lt-General Udomchai Thammasarorach yesterday described the suspects’ change of heart as a good sign.
“We have shown there is forgiveness for those who had been misled and want to change,” he said.
Also yesterday, Lt-Colonel Sathirapong Artharn, chief of Narathiwat 30 taskforce, led his team in the arrest of a bombing suspect in Narathiwat’s Rusoh district.
