New Delhi, March 21 (TIWN) In spite of the government's repeated requests, the general public is indulging in panic buying sprees across shops in the National Capital Region (NCR).

Sharpshooters killed the gunman on Sunday morning after a 17-hour ordeal, including a night of firefights and terrifying dashes for mall exits by shoppers trapped in the Terminal 21 mall in Nakhon Ratchasima, also known as Korat.  The provincial governor told reporters that the death toll stood at 30 with dozens injured.  The dead include civilians — one of them a 13-year-old boy — and security forces going after the rogue soldier, who was upset over a debt dispute, according to Thailand's prime minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha.  "It is unprecedented in Thailand, and I want this to be the last time this crisis happens," he said earlier outside a hospital where victims -- some in critical condition -- were being treated.
