Lobsang Kelsang, 19, a Tibetan monk who was detained last year following a solitary protest in southwestern China’s Sichuan province, has been located in prison in Deyang City. His family spent months tracing him, to find that he was given a three-year sentence in a secret trial. During the protest another Tibetan who tried to help him was also detained.
