From Reuters:
China released on Tuesday a wanted list of eight “terrorists” it said had plotted to attack the Beijing Olympic Games and were bent on separating the restive western region of Xinjiang.
It said the eight had also carried out attacks but did not say where.
Resource-rich Xinjiang, strategically located on the borders of Central Asia, has been rocked by sometimes violent unrest this year, including the killing of 16 armed police just before the August Olympics, blamed by China on Muslim militants seeking an independent state they call “East Turkestan”.China called for international cooperation in tracking down the eight suspects, all Chinese citizens.
