The tower is being built by Hebei Yineng Tower Engineering Co Ltd. Among the detained are chairman of Hebei Yineng Tower Engineering Co Ltd, and chief engineer of the construction project. Further investigation is under way, police added. Earlier, 17 people were taken into custody for the accident.
