60 men have been detained in Gewar village in Tongar Town, in Tibet’s Dzogang county in Chamdo. They are being questioned about the recent mining protests and the death of Phakpa Gyaltsen who stabbed himself before jumping to his death last month. The men in the village, and anybody who had traveled to India, were ordered to attend a meeting where one member of each family was taken into custody.
