On 24 March ; a group of local Chinese police arrived at Sonam Tso’s home and demanded her family to hand over the body. In order to ensure that Sonam Tso received proper funeral rites ; her family responded that they had already cremated the body and that there was nothing to hand over. The same day the family laid Sonam Tso to rest following Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Local Chinese police however interrogated and detained the deceased’s relative Tsultrim for eight days and destroyed all images and information he had collected on his phone about Sonam Tso’s self-immolation. The deceased’s husband Kelsang Gyatso was also intrerrogated several times. Their current condition and whereabouts remain unknown. Belongs to Sera Monastery
