In a well planned raid, the suspects burned several tyres and laid rows of nails on the roads leading to the location of the ATMs, to prevent pursuit by security officials and low down the response to the attack.
Two of the ATMs were located in Khoke Pho district and one in Sai Buri district, Pattani. Police said the bombs were triggered by time-delay detonators.
