- Two die in clash with Chinese police at Tibetan monastery, activists say
Confrontation at Kirti monastery reportedly occurred during raid in which police took away 300 monksTwo people have reportedly died in a clash with Chinese police during a raid on a Tibetan Buddhist monastery where tensions have run high over the recent suicide of a monk.The incident marks some of the worst violence in the ongoing troubles at Kirti monastery high in the Himalayan foothills in a Tibetan area of Sichuan province.Police who have blockaded the monastery and restricted the movements of its 2,500 residents launched a raid on Thursday night, according to the US-based International Campaign for Tibet.Police took 300 monks to an unknown location and two villagers trying to block the monks' removal were killed, it said.The dead were named by the group as 60-year-old Dongko, and a 65-year-old woman, Sherkyi. The area has since been closed off to outside visitors, it said.Tensions in Kirti were heightened by the suicide on 16 March of 21-year-old monk, Phuntsog, who set himself on fire in a protest against government controls of Tibetan Buddhism, which recognizes the exiled Dalai Lama as its leader.China occupied Tibet in 1950 and claims the region has been part of its territory for centuries, although many Tibetans, who are linguistically and ethnically distinct from Chinese, say they were in effect independent.Information from the remote region is extremely limited, and it was not immediately possible to confirm the incident.Without mentioning the clash, the state-run Xinhua News Agency said authorities had ordered residents of Kirti to attend a course of legal education, a form of political indoctrination deeply resented by monks.ChinaTibetBuddhismReligionHuman rightsDavid Battyguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is sub 警察はマーク300 monksTwoの人々が伝えられるの緊張がmonk.The事件の最近の自殺で高い実行したチベット仏教僧院の襲撃の間に中国の警察との衝突で死亡している奪っているの対決Kirti修道院は伝え空襲中に発生したいくつかのKirtiの修道院で進行中のトラブルヒマラヤ山麓の僧院を封鎖しており、制限されて2500住民の動きを四川province.Policeのチベット地域での高い最悪の暴力の米によると、木曜日の夜に襲撃を開始- Tibet.Policeベースの国際キャンペーンは、未知の場所に300僧侶を取った修道士の除去を阻止しようとしている二村人たちは、それが死んで、60歳のDongkoとしてグループで指定されたsaid.The死亡し、65歳歳の女性、Sherkyi
