On
Thursday last week, a bomb was detonated inside an internet
cafe in Inner Mongolia's Bayan Nur. Eight people were
injured in the explosion. Chinese public security has ruled
out terrorism or racial tensions and have detained twelve
suspects.
China News
reports that the
bombing may have been a result of a personal feud between
the cafe's owner and a patron surnamed Zhang. Police suspect
that Zhang, who was holding an undisclosed grudge against
the cafe owner, decided to destroy the establishment.
At
midnight, July 11, a bomb went off in the internet cafe. It
is not currently known who the eight victims are or what
their current condition is. A day after the bombing, the
authorities managed to track down Zhang and after some
questioning, he confessed to the attack, which was motivated
by an "irreconcilable difference" between him and the owner.
It's
unclear who the other 11 detained suspects are or where
Zhang got the explosives. Currently, the authorities are
still looking into the matter. Let's hope the case will be
closed quickly and the eight injured get back on their feet.
