At least ten young Tibetans have been detained and beaten in Marchu County in Tibet’s Amdo Province after staging a peaceful protest against the local government’s decision to sack them. They have worked there for 3-4 years and are being replaced by graduates from outside the area. They asked for a review of the decision and say that examinations for public servants are being conducted unfairly, disadvantaging Tibetans.
