Gangbu Rikgye Nyima, aged around 30, a Tibetan political prisoner serving a 10 year prison sentence, has been released early with his health in a critical condition. He was arrested in 2012 during a peaceful protest against Chinese rule, along with ten others, including two monks who were imprisoned with him. There are reports that they continued to protest in prison and have been subjected to beatings and torture.
