Chinese court has sentenced 30 people to prison for three years on Tuesday. They have been given such a harsh punishment for taking part in the deadly rioting that has taken last month. It begin on March 14 in Lhasa the capital city of Tibet . According to the Chinese they were 19 death and more then 600 wounded, but according to Tibetan government in exile the crackdown have killed scores of Tibetans.
A Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman said she did not know anything about the planned talk announced between Chinese government and Dalai Lama. She made clear that china blames Dalai Lama for the violence in Tibet and all over the world. The Chinese government say that the riot that began in Lhasa in March destroyed 7 schools, 5 hospitals and 120 homes but Tibetan exile groups say more than 200 people mostly Tibetan were killed in the crackdown. The government don’t want to show any mercy for the people who took part in riot. I don’t know what the outcome of this would be. No one ever said getting a freedom is so easy after all.
