Dec. 29 (TibetanReview): Four monks jailed by the Chinese authorities in Mangra (Chinese: Guinan) County of Tsolho (Chinese: Hainan) Prefecture in Qinghai Province have been released weeks before completing their terms on Feb 24, 2011 apparently because the authorities did not want to take responsibility for their very poor physical conditions.
