- Description of event
Dhargye, son of Mr Choephel and Mrs Choelha, is from Awu Kyil Rigo village, Serthar (Ch: Seda) County, in Kardze (Ch: Ganzi) Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province.
On 5 August 2021, police in Lhasa arbitrarily arrested Dhargye together with two associates: his relative Tsering and a nun named Choekyi. Although the two were released after several months, Dhargye has since disappeared. His family has received no official notice of his condition or location and has been denied the right to visit him. Chinese authorities have not disclosed the reasons for Dhargye’s detention. It is widely believed that he was targeted for maintaining contacts with Tibetans abroad.
