Nepal arrests 6 Tibetans fleeing Chinese rule

Jan 3 (IANS): Nepal police have arrested a group of six Tibetans who escaped into northern Nepal from Tibet, less than a fortnight after a WikiLeaks expose said China was paying Nepal’s police to arrest fleeing Tibetan refugees.

The four men and two women, who did not have any travel documents, were apprehended at around midnight in Sindhupalchowk district on Dec. 2, 2010.

Police said the group was handed over to immigration authorities for investigation and necessary action.
