Jigme Gyatso, 36, from Tibet’s Tsongon Buddhist University in Xining, was detained by Chinese police in May 2021. He continues to be in custody without verdict, reports the Central Tibetan Administration. News of his arrest has only now emerged from Tibet; his charges appear to be linked to his distribution of poetry books to fellow monks during a university graduation ceremony. He had won a Tibet-wide poetry competition.
