A recent crackdown in the deep South has seen more than 350 suspected militants rounded up and detained.
Many deny any connection with the violence that has paralysed the region for almost three and a half years.
Some of those arrested are the elderly and infirm with little knowledge of the situation. They were detained without charge for weeks.

Rohya Maseng still has no idea why he was taken away from Ban Kawa in Sungai Padi district and held at a military camp in Pattani for 16 days.

Rohya and his relative, 67-year-old Imam Ma-arong Haji Abdurrahman, were among 40 suspects taken away from the village. Ban Kawa in Sungai Padi district has been designated a red zone - identified by the Army as a haven for militants.

"I was interrogated for just 15 minutes when I arrived at Ingkayuthaborihan camp in Pattani. Soldiers just asked about my children," he said in an interview with The Nation. He was locked up with three others for one week before being allowed outside during week two."
