Wang Haijian was arrested on suspicion of causing an explosion near a China Construction Bank branch in the city's Hongshan district on December 1, leaving two people dead, one of them a 13-year-old girl, and 15 injured.
Wang confessed he planned the explosion in an attempt to hijack a money transport vehicle, Xinhua news agency reported today.
