Solo Protestor Arrested

February 25, 2017;

Lobsang Tsultrim, a young Tibetan monk from Kirti Monastery in Ngaba was arrested following a solo protest in the town. He carried a portrait of HH the Dalai Lama and shouted slogans before being arrested. There are concerns that his protest, just before Losar, or Tibetan New Year and the forthcoming Tibetan Uprising day, may give rise to a scaling up of security clampdowns in the area.
