Five Detained

June 28, 2016;

Five Tibetans have been detained by Chinese police following the assault on Tibetans who were protesting against the demolition of houses and shops near Qinghai Lake. The detained Tibetans were given no explanation or documents concerning their arrest. Four of the detainees were Lhachen Kyab, Jigje Delek Gyatso, Rinchen Bum, and Tashi Dolma. “It was a sheer display of force and intimidation,” said Radio Free Asia’s source.
