A Tibetan monk from eastern Tibet has reportedly been detained for a second time by Chinese authorities, raising fresh concerns over China’s continued suppression of religious freedom and dissent in Tibet.
Jamyang Tashi, a monk from the influential Labrang Tashikhyil Monastery in Amdo, was taken into custody by police in Sangchu County in early February, as reported by Tibet Watch and cited by Phayul.
According to the research outfit Tibet Watch, the detention reportedly occurred only two months after Jamyang had been released from a previous six-month period of arbitrary detention.
Chinese authorities have neither disclosed the reason for his latest detention nor provided any information regarding his current whereabouts or condition
