A suspected anti-government insurgent with an outstanding arrest warrant on his head was found dead in a ditch early today after a clash with Thai government security forces in a village in the southern border province of Narathiwat late last night.
Police identified the man as Abdulromeng Dueloh, 34, and said an arrest warrant has been issued for him on October 21, 2008 in connection with the murder of state officials.
Security forces raided a village in Joh I Rong district last night after a tip that a militant group was hiding there. The group allegedly attacked a military base at Ban Yue Loh in Bacho district last month.
Two defence volunteers were wounded in last night’s firefight. Some militants were also wounded and fled the village.
