Ngawang Gyaltsen, a former monk from a monastery in Nagchu county, was detained by Chinese authorities on February 24. News of his detention was blocked from reaching outside sources due to communication clampdowns. He had recently been forced to withdraw from the monastery and had been subjected to increased restrictions after challenging Chinese officials who conducted “patriotic education” programs.
