The former political prisoners group Gu-Chu-Sum is celebrating its 25th Anniversary while holding their three-day 7th General Body meeting. President Lukar Jam Atsok opened the meeting, saying the biggest weapon Tibetans hold against the Chinese Communist government is the unfathomable spirit of the Tibetan self-immolators and the political prisoners. Gu-Chu-Sum provides support to ex-political prisoners and works to secure the release of political prisoners in Tibet.
