Around 40 Tibetans have been detained in China’s Qinghai province. They were at a police station querying the compensation arrangements for the family of Soebey, a Tibetan motorcyclist killed in a road accident by a Chinese truck driver who has been allowed to go free and pay only minimal compensation. In the dispute one police officer was injured, when police reinforcements arrived many of the Tibetans were severely injured.
