Ten Detained

June 4, 2015;

At least 10 people were detained when police dispersed a group of Tibetans protesting against construction work in Alak village in northwestern China’s Gansu province. The protest started when heavy earth-moving equipment was brought in for road construction on land owned by Tibetans. The land, which was undeveloped, had been used by the local Tibetan community for dances and performances, reported Radio Free Asia.
