Dharamshala, 12 janvier 2012 : A Sanchu, dans la région de Kanlho (Tibet oriental), Tsebey, un tibétain de 22 ans, s'est immolé par le feu à 13 heure aujourd'hui. Il est le premier tibétain à s'être immolé par le feu en protestation contre le régime chinois en 2013. Il est mort sur les lieux des faits.
Des tibétains ont emporté le corps dans un lieu sûr avant que la police armée chinois arrive. Un témoin nous a rapporté que que Tsebey a été transporté dans son village, Kenyang.

Malgré des appels répété de l'Administration Centrale du Tibet demandant avec insistance aux Tibétains de ne pas recourir à de telles extrémités, plus de 96 tibétains se sont immolés par le feu depuis 2009 pour demander le retour de Sa Sainteté le Dalaï Lama et un Tibet Libre.

DHARAMSHALA: Tsebey, a 22-year-old Tibetan man set himself on fire around 1 pm local time today (12 January) in Sangchu region of Kanlho in eastern Tibet. He is the first Tibetan to set himself on fire protesting against the Chinese government in 2013. He died on the spot.
Local Tibetans took his body to a safe location before Chinese security authorities arrived. His body was later carried away to his home village, an eyewitness said.

Tsebey hails from Keynang village in Sangchu county, Amchok. He is survived by his father Dukar Kyab and mother Dolma Tsering.


Despite repeated appeals by the Central Tibetan Administration urging Tibetans not to resort to drastic actions, over 96 Tibetans have self -immolated since 2009, calling for the return of His Holiness the Dalai Lama to Tibet and freedom for Tibetans.
