An Uncle’s Message

December 12, 2018;

A video has been sent to phayul, claiming to show a message from a man called Jampal Drakpa who says he is the uncle of Dhorbe, the young Tibetan man who self-immolated in Ngaba on November 4. Phayul reports that they have not been able to independently verify the video, which shows Jampal Drakpa saying his nephew died of burns after a motorbike accident, not self-immolation.
