The 2011 Fuzhou bombings (Simplified Chinese: 抚州市连环爆炸案; Pinyin: Fǔzhōu shì liánhuán bàozhà àn) were three separate, synchronized explosions at government buildings in Fuzhou, Jiangxi, China on the morning of 26 May 2011. At least three people died, and at least seven were injured. The perpetrator, 52-year-old Qian Mingqi, was initially reported possibly among those killed in the blasts, leading China's state run news agencies to label it a suicide bombing. The Jiangxi Provincial Public Security Department later confirmed that the suspect died at the scene. The three explosions occurred between 9:18 and 9:45am CST (0100 UTC).〔 The first blast occurred in a parking lot outside the offices of the city prosecutor, the second inside a district administration office, and the third explosion hit the city's food and drug agency. Two of the bombs were placed inside cars parked just outside of the buildings. The official Xinhua news agency had posted a news article on its website saying the bombs were planted by a disgruntled farmer who was dissatisfied with the outcome of a court case,〔 but by 1pm on the day of the bombing the article had been removed from the site. ==Background== In 1995 Qian Mingqi's home was demolished by government authorities to make way for a highway. He then saved up enough money to build a second home, which was also shattered by a second forced demolition. His second house cost about 500,000 yuan, and the authorities paid him only half of that for compensation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title='Injustice' drove bomber to violence )〕 Because of the lack of compensation, he posted slogans to resist the demolition. According to his neighbors, Qian's wife was then hung upside down by the demolition team. She died a few years later from gall bladder disease. From the police report of the Fuzhou Police, Qian's wife has been dead for several years.〔(抚州警方到爆炸案嫌犯住所取证（图）In English: Fuzhou police collected evidence from bombing suspect's living place ) 28 May 2011 联合早报〕 After the ordeal he then discovered the land seized from him to make a highway was actually not used.〔 By 2002 Qian began petitioning in Fuzhou and Beijing's government offices. Unable to find redress, he reportedly taught himself to use the internet, and cultivate a presence on various blogging platforms, hoping to get the attention of human rights defenders, academics, lawyers, reporters, and police. Not only did Qian fail to elicit the attention of anyone who might help him, but he became aware of other individuals who had similarly had their homes demolished.〔('The sad story of Jiangxi bomber, Qian Mingqi' ), Shanghaiist.com, 27 May 2011.〕 In one of his blog he accused Linchuan district party cadre of embezzling 10 million yuan in compensation funds after demolishing his house and that of seven other families.〔 Qian had two sons and one daughter.〔(江西抚州钱明奇连环爆炸案或与拆迁有关 ) 27 May 2011 新华社〕 Bombings, especially ones of this sophistication, are rare in China,〔 but this was the second in a month. Earlier in May 2011 in north-west Gansu province a "petrol bomb" was set off outside a bank by a former employee.〔 There are very few ways for the Chinese people to redress or raise awareness of what they see as a wrong they have suffered, and therefore, as the BBC's Michael Bristow states, "some Chinese people occasionally take out their frustration in attacks like this."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「2011 Fuzhou, Jiangxi bombings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
