Solidarity rally for Tibetans in Ngaba County, Tibet
On Tuesday, 26 April 2011, the Tibetan Community in Switzerland and Liechtenstein (TCSL) organised a solidarity rally for the Tibetan monks in Ngaba (Sichuan province). The event, which started at 6.30pm (location: Werdmühleplatz), was attended by approximately 450 Tibetans. The solidarity march through the city centre ended in front of the Chinese Consulate in Zurich.
The situation in Ngaba has been tense since last month, when a young monk died after setting fire to himself. Since then, several violent incidents have been reported.
The TCSL strongly condemns the cruel approach by the Chinese government and the local security forces and demands the immediate release of all imprisoned monks and the end of inhuman repression methods.Photos..
