AbstractFor 69-year-old Tibetan scholar and monk Lopsang Gyatso, and the two young monks were murdered. Who could have committed such a crime? "It is quite possible that the Chinese - or a Tibetan paid by the Chinese - hired an assassin to kill the director," says Police Superintendent R.K. Singh. The Dalai Lama also faces threats from Tibetans. Police security around the Dalai Lama's palace has been fortified. Meanwhile, tensions between the two Buddhist factions continue to mount.
