The trial of Tashi Wanghcuk, the Tibetan rights activist detained two years ago for “inciting separatism” following his appearance in a New York Times video, has ended without a verdict. The trial lasted about four hours and was adjourned with no final verdict. There is speculation that a verdict and sentence may still be announced. Tashi Wangchuk’s family attended the trial as well as foreign diplomatic representatives.
