The Chinese government's announcement that it will expand a new security system throughout Tibet despite an already heavy security presence and little evidence of violent threats to the state raises grave concerns about threats to human rights.
Tibet (China) Highlights
Free Expression & the Law
A Chinese court sentenced Tibetan monk Lorang Konchok to death with two years' reprieve and his nephew, Lorang Tsering, to 10 years in prison on charges of "intentional homicide" in connection with the self-immolation protests of other Tibetans.
Free Expression & the LawTibetan filmmaker Dhondup Wangchen has reportedly been moved to a women's prison where conditions are not as harsh. However, there is no new information about Jigme Gyatso, a Buddhist monk who assisted Wangchen on a documentary and who has been arrested several times.
Free Expression & the LawThere is concern about three Tibetan monks of whom there has been no news since their arrest in early December 2012 for sharing information about a student demonstration.
