SHANGHAI (Reuters) - Prosecutors in far western China have indicted eight people over an attack on the edge of Beijing's Tiananmen Square last October in which a car ploughed into a crowd and caught fire, the state-run Xinhua news agency reported on Saturday.
The government of the restive region of Xinjiang also unveiled new policies to underpin a year-long, nationwide anti-terrorism campaign launched on May 25, offering rewards for weapons turned in to the police and mandating that companies hire more locals.
