Questo significa che ogni ora un suddito viene condanato alla pena capitale!

Dal 10 maggio 2009 è iniziato, nella più completa segretezza, il secondo movimento “Ritorno in Tibet”. Una decina di monaci tibetani ha infatti lasciato la capitale indiana Nuova Delhi il 14 maggio, procedendo via terra con delle jeep. Purtroppo, il giorno 16, una tempesta di neve ha bloccato le loro macchine. Ma quest’ inconveniente non ha fermato la loro determinazione a tornare in Tibet e hanno quindi proseguito a piedi. Da allora non abbiamo più loro notizie e non sappiamo dove si trovino in questo momento.
