October 21, 2013;

A Tibetan father of three, Tenzin Rangdol, 34, is being held incommunicado by police in Shagchu town, Driru County since his arrest on October 18. The arrest triggered an overnight protest outside the local government office in Shagchu town. More than 10 protesters were arrested and later released. A local official from Nagchu Prefecture said the Tibetans were like eggs being banged upon a rock under threat of facing the fate of 1959 and 1969.
