April 22, 2014;

Lobsang Tenzin, a lama from Pashoe monastery in Chamdo, along with “six or seven” other monks were arrested last month for contributing money towards a long life prayer for His Holiness the Dalai Lama during the Great Prayer Festival (Monlam Chenmo). One of the monks was later released but the current condition and whereabouts of the detained monks remain unknown. Pictures and audio recordings of the Dalai Lama were reportedly found in Lobsang Tenzin’s quarters.
