‘Bomber’ targets China courthouse – BBC News

From BBC News (link)

A bomb explosion at a courthouse in south-west China has killed one man and injured a judge.

Officials in the city of Guangyuan in Sichuan province said they suspected it was a suicide attack and said the dead man appeared to be the bomber.

There are few initial details but one account describes a man walking into the court with a bag of explosives.

In a similar attack last year, a farmer set off a bomb at a court in apparent anger at a court ruling against him.
