Dharamsala, January 31 – The Assembly of Tibetan People’s Deputies has condemned the recent execution of Lobsang Dhondup, accused of plotting bomb blast in Tibet.
In a statement, Ms Gyari Dolma, Deputy Speaker of the Assembly, said the trial was neither transparent nor fair and Lobsang Dhondup was executed without any evidence which was highly deplorable.
Ms Dolma alleged that the action of China showed total disregard for international laws and concern of countries and was an attempt to tarnish the image of non-violent struggle of Tibet under the leadership of the Dalai Lama. It also showed the insincerity of the People’s Republic of China for a peaceful settlement of the Tibetan issue, she said.
Expressing concern of the Assembly about the welfare of Tenzin Delek Rinpoche who had been awarded death sentence along with a two-year suspension, Ms Dolma demanded a fair retrial and also asked for immediate release of other 10 Tibetans who had been arrested in their effort to get Tezin Delek Rinpoche released.
She also appealed to international community to help by exerting pressure on China in this connection.
In a separate statement, Mr Nawang Paljor, president of the Dharamsala Regional Tibetan Youth Congress, paid homage to Lobsang Dhondup.
He said China had failed to produce any evidence against Lobsang Dhondup and Tenzin Delek Rinpoche, a highly respected spiritual leader, in the bombing case.
Both were denied legal representation, he claimed.
