Chinese authorities in Tibet’s Sog County have arrested two Tibetan monks from the Sog Tsenden monastery in separate incidents this month. Gendun Drakpa, 20, was arrested on March 14 for reportedly burning the Chinese national flag and writing “Tibet is independent” (in Tibetan) on a gate, and Choeying Kalden, 20, was arrested on March 16 for allegedly sending an essay critical of the Chinese government to fellow monks.
