Another Tibetan sets himself on fire in protest

BEIJING (AP) — Another Tibetan has set himself on fire while shouting slogans calling for the Dalai Lama’s return to Tibet, a London-based rights group said.

Free Tibet said Lhamo Kyeb, a 27-year-old father of two children, died Saturday near a monastery in northwestern China’s Gansu province. Citing a witness, it said he set himself on fire and ran toward Bhora monastery in Xiahe county and that state security forces standing nearby ran after him and tried to put out the flames.
