80 Tibetans detained after anti-China protest in Nepal
30/3/08
Around 80 Tibetan protesters shouting “stop the killing in Tibet” were hauled away in police vehicles and detained after demonstrating outside the Chinese embassy in Nepal’s capital today. About 100 police officers broke up the rally by dragging the demonstrators, who let their bodies go limp, into waiting police trucks and vans. “We have detained some 80 Tibetan protesters,” said a police officer outside the Chinese mission, asking not to be named. The protesters waved flags of the Tibetan government-in-exile and shouted “stop killing in Tibet” and “UN we want justice” as they were being rounded up.
