Ngodup Tsering, a Tibetan man from Dartsedo County in Kham Karze was arrested and beaten to death by Chinese police officers, reports the Tibet Times. He was arrested on September 27 when he was returning from an old peoples’ home after providing food and supplies to the people living there.
He was taken to a local police station for interrogation and police officers confronted him for his motivation for providing supplies to elderly people as it was the government’s duty and there was no need for an “outsider” to help. He was accused of degrading the government’s name through his action of helping. He was severely beaten during the interrogation as punishment and he died the next day at the police station.
There is no information as of now whether his body has been returned to his family or not. Ngodup Tsering was a driver; he has left behind a 78 year old mother Lhakyi, his wife Yutso and two children.
