Mass prayer for Tibetan executions
His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje leads a mass prayer service at the Tsuglagkhang in Dharamsala, India, Saturday, October 31 2009. Hundreds of Tibetan exiles, including Buddhist monks and nuns, gathered at the main Tibetan temple for a three-day prayer service to mourn over the Tibetans executed by Chinese authorities last week in the Tibetan capital Lhasa. Tibetan Government-in-exile say four Tibetans were executed for their alleged role in the last year’s anti-China protest, but China has confirmed it executed two Tibetans. The memorial service is being organised by ten Tibetan organisations based in Dharamsala. (Photo: Sangey Kep, Tibet.net)
