Only Miracle can save her : Doctors

A teacher who was beaten into coma by a mob in Narathiwat on Friday has a slim chance of survival, doctors said on Saturday.

Juling Kamphongmoon sustained severe injuries, including blood clots in her brain, when she was beaten by local villagers in the province's Ra Ngae district who were holding other women teachers hostage at a government school.

The horror took place as some 300 villagers surrounded the school to demand the release of two suspected Muslim rebels arrested earlier the same day in connection with the killing of two marines last year."There is slim chance that she will survive. I would like to urge Thais throughout the country to pray for a miracle to happen to Juling," Dr Sumet Phirawut told a news conference.

Her parents already travelled from Chiang Mai.

The hostages were held about three hours before being released. Another teacher was slightly injured in the protest.

Last September, villagers in the same district held hostage two marines who were stabbed to death. The villagers believed that they had been involved in the killing of two of their fellow residents at a village teashop.
