China has executed 4 pro-Tibet protesters: Report

Rediff.com23 Oct 2009

China has reportedly executed four Tibetan protesters, including one woman, in connection with last year's deadly riots in Lhasa. The first ever-reported judicial killings of Tibetans in China have prompted overseas protests that proper legal procedures were not followed. Although the Chinese media is yet to confirm the executions, Dharamsala-based Tibetan Centre for Human Rights and Democracy has claimed that the executions took place early on Tuesday morning.
