Chinese officials said Sunday at least 11 Chinese were killed and two are missing after their boats were attacked in the Mekong River
Chinese Foreign Ministry officials told the Xinhua news agency that two cargo boats were attacked Thursday in the Golden Triangle area of the Mekong River
The Bangkok Post newspaper said Thai forces engaged the drug traffickers soon afterward and recaptured the boats, which had 900,000 methamphetamine tablets on board.
Thai forces said the bodies of the Chinese crews were found in the river, blindfolded, with their hands tied behind their backs.
The Thai army told the Post that a gang run by Nor Kham, a Shan drug trafficker, is thought to be behind the killings. ---VOA News
