Mug shot of Wuhan bombing suspect released

POLICE released a mug shot of a man suspected of masterminding a fatal explosion that killed two and injured 15 outside a bank in Wuhan, capital of Hubei Province.

Wuhan police posted the clear picture on its official microblog yesterday, stating the suspect was about 1.65 to 1.70 meters tall. A 100,000 yuan (US$15,770) reward is offered for information leading to his arrest.

Police obtained the picture after viewing surveillance cameras footage of the area prior to the bombing that captured the man riding a white scooter around the blast scene.

The huge explosion took place at around 5:30pm last Thursday outside the gate of a China Construction Bank branch near a middle school.

Police said their preliminary investigation found unknown objects piled on the sidewalk in front of the bank's gate had caused the explosion.
