REUTERS/Jorge SilvaNONTHABURI, Thailand - Among the hundreds mourning Moe Myint on Sunday was the mother of the Burmese victim of last week's shooting rampage at a Bangkok mall, seeming dazed at the cremation ceremony on the outskirts of the Thai capital.
Moe Myint was one of two killed when a 14-year-old boy went on a shooting spree at the luxury Siam Paragon shopping centre in Bangkok's bustling commercial area on Tuesday. Five were wounded and hundreds of panicked shoppers raced to the exits as the gunshots rang out. Khin Win flew in from Myanmar for the Burmese-style cremation in Nonthaburi province north of Bangkok, where her daughter's remains were brought in a procession, led by a saffron-robed monk, into the temple in a white coffin with gold trim.
Thai Justice Minister Tawee Sodsong vowed at the ceremony,"We will ensure fair processes, provide support to the victims, and handle the affairs of the deceased's family with utmost care."
