Two recently arrested suspects identified Rorki Dorloh, 30, as a mastermind behind bomb-attack plots. The two suspects, Maruwan Salae and Ayu Ma-ae, were arrested last week while allegedly working on bomb-making materials at a house in Yala province. The 41st Ranger Regiment's deputy commander, Lt-Colonel Sittisak Jenbanjong, said, "They have provided useful information."Sittisak said that both have implicated Rorki, accusing the man of ordering bombs. Rorki is facing arrest warrants in a number of security cases already. In one, he allegedly participated in an attack on rangers in which five troops died and three others were wounded.
Meanwhile, a former ranger was gunned down at his home in Pattani yesterday morning. Police believe the shooting was linked to the southern insurgency.
