Pretty messed up situation. Unfortunately the Chinese government block the info her online.
Police have arrested three more suspects in Saturday's knife attack that killed dozens of people at a train station in the southwestern Chinese city of Kunming, China's state-run Xinhua news agency reported Monday, citing the Ministry of Public Security.
Authorities now believe all eight alleged attackers have been arrested or killed, Xinhua reported. Four are under arrest, and four were fatally shot by police at the scene Saturday, according to the news agency.
Attackers with long knives stormed the station, killing at least 28 people and wounding 113, according to Xinhua. Members of a separatist group from Xinjiang, in northwest China, are believed to have carried out the assault, authorities said. Xinhua's reports referred to them as terrorists.
Reports and bloody photographs initially poured out from the March 1 massacre, yet the noise was quickly suppressed—not due to a lack of public interest, but rather from an order from the Communist Party’s Central Propaganda Department.
The order read, according to China Digital Times, “Media that report on the knife attack incident that occurred March 1 at the Kunming Railway Station must strictly adhere to Xinhua News Agency wire copy or information provided by local authorities."
One netizen, Gulang Mosan, commented, “Don’t you think those uniformed scoundrels seem familiar? Just like those well-trained, strong figures that led the crowds smashing Japanese cars in the anti-Japan Defend the Islands campaign …”

Considering the CCP used policemen dressed as monks to riot and create justification for the tibetan crackdown 2008, and faked the Falun Gong Tianenmen Inmmoliation Incident for the same reason, I would not put it past the CCP to be doing the same thing here--even killing civilians for their own agenda. Though the previous examples have been verified, this is of course speculation, but should raise suspicion at least about this whole 'massacre by Uigur terrorists'edit on 4-3-2014 by Halfswede because: added source info
