At least two people died and 21 were injured on Thursday when a
\nbomb exploded in a border town in Thailand's troubled Narathiwat
\nprovince, where about 100 Muslims earlier gathered for the mass
\nburial of 22 unidentified men killed in military custody after a
\nviolent protest, officials said. Police said most of the victims
\nof the explosion appeared to be Malaysian tourists. The bomb
\nexploded outside a bar in the town of Sungai Kolok on the border
\nwith Malaysia, police said. Two men on a motorcycle left the
\nexplosive device in a box outside a shop next to the bar, and it
\nexploded as they drove off, police said. -- AP<\/p>\n
