The British based Free Tibet organisation is campaigning for the release of language campaigner Tashi Wangchuk who was jailed in March this year. They have submitted a petition to the governor of Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture; the United States State Department is supporting their case. The British Foreign and Commonwealth Office says it intends to raise Tashi Wangchuk’s case directly with China in the forthcoming UK-China Human Rights Dialogue.
