POLICE in Hengshui, Hebei Province, said yesterday they had detained six people suspected of setting off explosives at a residential community, as well as a contractor of a new property project to be built at the site of the community.
The suspects confessed that the explosions, coming days after local residents received warnings to relocate, were plotted by the project contractor.
The apartment building in the residential community in Hengshui City was shocked by three explosions early on Tuesday.
Local police discovered the explosions were the result of firecrackers. No casualties were involved.
The apartment building was attacked at midnight, one of the residents surnamed Wang told China News Service.
The building had its construction completed in 2003 and its residents moved in from 2004.
Some buildings nearby have been demolished while engineering has been going on at a construction site to the south of the building, the report said.
The residents were urged to relocate last year and asked to sign unfair terms, a news report said.
From then on they were frequently harassed by sabotage in the building, including the blocking-up of keyholes for storage rooms and garages.
Glass windows on the first and second floors were also smashed in February.
