DHARAMSHALA, March 19: Chinese authorities have reportedly tortured a young Tibetan Buddhist monk to death while in custody, before returning his body to his monastery under strict orders of silence, according to a report by research group Tibet Watch.
The monk, identified as Samten, 25, was reportedly under police surveillance since 2021. His remains were returned in December last year to Ditsa Geden Tashi Choeding Ling Monastery by authorities from Shongshan Tibetan Township. Officials claimed that he had fallen suddenly ill and died during an emergency transfer to a hospital, the name and location of which were not disclosed. The exact date of his detention also remains unclear.
