More than 100 Tibetan nuns have been expelled from Changlo nunnery in Dingri county in the Shigatse prefecture in southwestern Tibet near the border with Nepal. Chinese authorities sent them back to their family homes earlier in the year, requiring them to wear lay dress. The move was aimed at nuns living at the facility without official permission, only 21 of the 200 nuns there had permission.
