Tibetans living in Kyangche Township in Golok in Amdo have appealed for the release of Anya Sengdra who has been in detention for five months, accused of “provoking trouble”. They have sent a letter which rejects the government’s allegations about him. His detention period was extended and there is concern for his health as it is reported to be poor. Anya Sengdra is an anti-corruption activist.
