The revolt by the discontented monks fatally imperils Tibetans under the Dragon’s watch
China has blamed the “Dalai Lama clique” for the deaths that it says occurred during last week’s Lhasa uprising. Several hundred inmates of the Sera and Drepung monasteries had spilled into the streets last Friday to mark the 49th anniversary of the failed Tibetan uprising against Beijing; and more in the Ganden and Lutsang monasteries in Qinghai (Amdo in Tibetan) had shouted slogans urging the Dalai Lama to return from his exile in India’s Dharamsala district. There is no source other than the state-run Xinhua news agency to confirm the death toll. A provincial official was quoted as saying, “The victims are all innocent civilians and they have been burnt to death.” He added that no foreigner was among the victims, but that several Chinese policemen were injured – though none critically. In reality, the toll could be very much higher.
A resident told London's Guardian newspaper that he heard an explosion and then a succession of shots almost every minute. While they could have been water cannon, the mayhem on the streets kept him indoors for hours. "I am too afraid to go out," he said. "It is chaos out there!" Tibetan support groups overseas claimed they were getting reports of more fires and protests near the Tromsikhang market in central Lhasa.
