Former govt kill insurgents handed over by M'sia : Sonthi
The previous government killed many insurgents handed by Malaysia into Thai custody, army chief General Sonthi Boonyaratglin said Monday.
"Malaysia is reluctant to help us as we don't behave. Sometimes they handed over suspected militants as requested, but we killed them," Sonthi told reporters upon his departure to Malaysia.He is visiting Malaysia to seek cooperation from Kuala Lumpur in containing violence in the deep South. Thailand previously requested that Malaysia arrest and deport suspected militants who fled over the border to hide in Malaysia. Sonthi said he would ask for help from Kuala Lumpur again in the hope it would be able to provide assistance in settling the problem. The Nation
