[Straits Times] MALAYSIAN police arrested three Thais who allegedly produced homemade explosives and are investigating whether they have links to a Muslim insurgency in southern Thailand, an official and a news report said on Tuesday.
He declined to elaborate, saying the matter was under investigation. It was not immediately clear how authorities found the men. The Star newspaper, quoting unidentified security officials, said the devices and material, including chemical fertiliser, may have been meant for use in a Muslim insurgency that has been raging in southern Thailand since 2004. | |
