Blasts rock Thai Buddhist temples
Bombs have exploded at three Buddhist temples in Thailand's troubled mainly-Muslim south.
A bystander was slightly wounded outside one temple, ******* reports.
Police in Narathiwat province said the temples were not seriously damaged by the bombs, which went off within an hour of each other.
The blasts are the first serious incident since Thai security forces killed more than 100 suspected Muslim militants in the region last month.
The explosive devices were placed at the gates of each of the temples, in three different districts - Takbai, Ruesoh and Rangae.
"We are investigating. We believe that the people behind the explosions are people who want to create unrest," provincial police commander Colonel Kachen Kochtarayu told AFP news agency.
"We don't know who they are or what kind of bombs were used."
