Sixteen people have been arrested in Lhasa’s Dhagze district on charges of robbing tombs and stealing relics from the ruins of temples in Lhasa. The gang is said to have taken advantage of the destruction of old buildings to make way for commercial development, and robbed the tombs and monasteries which are known to hold valuable antiques. 53 cultural relics have now been recovered from those arrested.
