China censors news of an SUV plowing into a crowd in Tiananmen Square, killing five

free world press has got it out and it is being censored to the chinese citizenry. do you ever bother reading the articles before posting even once in your history here? or you see china and immediately kowtow

Or, alternatively, they released an initial report and don't want rumors to fly before actual investigation is done.

You're wrong. If you can read Chinese go to Tecent or other Chinese sites, you can see the reports.

In a major breakthrough in the mysterious car crash at the iconic Tiananmen Square in Beijing, Chinese police on Wednesday termed it as a terrorist act by Islamic militants from the troubled Xinjiang province and arrested five suspects.

The vehicle, which burst into flames after crashing into the railing at the Forbidden City entrance on Monday, carried containers filled with gasoline, besides knives and iron bars, state-run CCTV reported.

Five suspects have been arrested, it said without revealing their identities.

Earlier media reports said police were looking for eight suspects — all from the Muslim Uighur-majority Xinjiang province, bordering Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (Azad Kashmir) and Afghanistan.

Three persons who were travelling in the car were killed along two other tourists.

Thirty-eight others were injured in what is now described as a full-blown terrorist attack on China’s most iconic landmark.

The Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) bearing number plates from Xinjiang carried a flag and displayed extremist slogans, the report said.

It appears that the militants wanted to create a big impact by attacking China’s seat of power as well as the famous symbol of its ancient Chinese civilisation.

Observers say that judging from the previous attacks in Xinjiang, the militants wanted to assault the crowd with knives and iron bars besides setting the place on fire.

Monday’s attack was their biggest outside Xinjiang.

The SUV crashed into the railings right at the entrance of the sprawling Forbidden City, home of successive Chinese ruling dynasties. The SUV was reportedly chased by police cars.

Some tourists said they heard an explosion. Also, the car went up in flames near the life-size picture of the ruling Communist Party founder Mao Zedong which, however, remained intact.

The imposing Forbidden City overlooks the Tiananmen Square, one of the largest of its kind in the world measuring up to the size of several football fields.
 
Five detained over Tian'anmen terrorist attack

CCTV English Channel - 10-30-2013 18:35 BJT

BEIJING, Oct. 30 (Xinhua) -- Chinese police have identified Monday's deadly Tian'anmen car crash as a violent terrorist attack and five suspects have been detained.

The attack was "carefully planned, organized and premeditated," police said.

With the cooperation of police authorities including those in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Beijing police have captured five suspects who had been at large, a spokesman with the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau said on Wednesday.

Usmen Hasan, his mother and wife drove a jeep with a Xinjiang plate to crash into a crowd of people at noon on Monday, killing two people and injuring another 40, the spokesman said.

The jeep crashed into a guardrail of Jinshui Bridge across the moat of the Forbidden City. The three people in the jeep died after they set gasoline on fire, according to the spokesman.

Police found gasoline, equipment full of gasoline, two knives and steel sticks as well as a flag with extremist religious content in the jeep.

Police have also found knives and at least one "jihad" flag in the temporary residence of the five detained suspects.

The suspects caught in connection with the incident are Husanjan Wuxur, Gulnar Tuhtiniyaz, Yusup Umarniyaz, Bujanat Abdukadir and Yusup Ahmat.

According to the spokesman, they admitted that they knew Usmen Hasan and conspired to plan and carry out the attack. They said they had not expected that the police could capture them only about 10 hours after the incident.

Further investigation into the case is under way.

Yes, that must be it. we know the chinese to be the beacon of truthiness :D

Indeed the website of Beijing Police Dept. did release some initial info within two hours after the incident. Of course, understandably this initial information release in Chinese was more to dissolve the possible confusion domestically.

At that time of the incident, the Quick Response Special Forces of Beijing Police Dept. was deployed immediately. They also quickly secured and emptied the Tian'anmen Square as precaution to further terrorist attack.

During this short period of relative lack of information, many of the foreign presses indulged themselves with the sensational, wildful headlines... at the minimum the wild speculation headlines did sell news :-)

Within ten hours after the incident, the police authority snapped five terrorist suspects with coordination of various parties incl. those in China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

We all know that it's very difficult in dealing with those extremists who are willing to commit suicide in such terrorist acts to achieve their ideas. In this case, the terrorist even brought along and sacrificed his mother and wife, perhaps as a way to disguise their cowardly plot to kill as many as innocents they could inflict.

I hope the authority will treat those extremists accordingly to eradicate and neutralize their threats, taking all necessary preventive measures to identify them and deny their possible toxic spreads and influences while being kind and supportive to the majority innocent people in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Irregardless of the positive acts, as always there will be few heads stand out in disagreement with the rest but they will resort to force and violence to push forward to achieve their ideas! However, with the active support from the external powers in overseas in various forms they may be attempting to depict their movement and ideas as the mainstream one. People should be aware of their risks, threats and dangers!

You're terribly wrong, and seems you're totally unaware of the true history!
Please keep the facts straight before going on with further disillusion.

They were the WHITE people incl. the KHAZARS, first from the Europeans and later succeeded by the Americans, who enslaved the Africans and their descendants, today known as the Black or "dark skinned" people for centuries!
The African are still poor until today because the White and Khazars looted and raped their people and resources to the extreme levels and leaving behind only the bad things and severely divided legacies and boundaries there.

Sorry, neither the Chinese nor any other race involved with regard to these atrocities.

This @Jaytl wants to be white so much that when he attack Chinese people and culture, it make him feel more white. Even when there is a terror attack in China, he choose this occasion to slam China. That is how much he wanta be a white boy.

US need to learn from China on how to deal with terrorists. Instead of treating them as guests and seek to understand them, we should just make them pay for their crime.

I guess I have to break things down for the chinese because evidently you did not comprehend what I was saying.

My comment " won't work with the chinese, since those men were all " dark skinned"...

This was meant to say- that since the chinese are so hyper racist as seen here.... they will not follow the likes of MLK, Mandela and Gandhi.

Well, it's just your perception that's accusing since some members posing as "Chinese" here are so racist then you assume that the 1,400,000,000 Chinese population around the globe are racist as well.
Okay, assume you're correct that some here are racist, but how can you ascertain who they are really, i mean those members who pose as Chinese here?

You have a very narrow minded thinking, to make your judgement based on the very limited number of samples here.

Furthermore, in the internet realm like this forum, every one can claim whatever he or she wants for whatever purpose, who knows the real, and how to verify... :-) like you claim to be an Indian resides in the USA, but who knows the real one :-)

Well, please mingle into real life, dude! And please apply logic and rationality.

Do NOT assume anything in the internet world. Just read and verify... only verifiable facts do matter :)
