Soldier held after students’ gunshots claim

The incident took place on Tuesday evening after the suspect’s car brushed the victims’ motorcycle, sending both the motorcycle rider and the passenger to the ground. 
One of the victims, Hanan Zuden, approached the driver to complain about the incident but the driver, identified only as Sergeant Preecha, got angry, pulled out his gun and fired a few shots. 
Hanan and her friend, both students at the Prince of Songkla University’s (PSU) Pattani Campus, were so scared that they ran for their lives. 
The campus’s Student Union and its legal team helped the victims lodge a complaint with police in the early hours yesterday. 
“Both victims have now been relocated to a lodging inside the campus for their safety,” the student union’s president Bukori Kamase said.
He added that Preecha was now locked up at a police station in Pattani. 
“We will fight for justice,” Bukori said. “Such a violent incident should have never happened, particularly by an official.”
