Bounty offered for the arrest of blast culprit

POLICE in central China are offering a 100,000-yuan (US$14,762.3) reward for information leading to the arrest of a man who allegedly detonated a bomb in a tax bureau, killing four people and injuring 19.

The suspect Liu Zhuiheng, 51, has left Changsha, capital of Hunan Province, where the explosion went off on the third floor of a district tax office on July 30.

Police said Liu bears a personal grudge against a bank director named Peng Maowu. Peng's son Peng Tao was at a meeting in the building that day. Liu secretly followed Peng Tao, put the explosives outside the meeting room and set it off with a remote control after he left the building.
Peng Tao was among the four victims who died on the spot. The 19 injured people are being treated in hospital and under stable condition, Xinhua reported today.
