Phuntsok, 21, of Kirti monastery in Amdo Ngaba carried out protest at the busy market of Ngaba to mark the 3rd anniversary of bloody crackdown on Tibetan protesters in Ngaba on March 16, 2008.

Just briefly before immolating himself. Phuntsok la clearly carried out slogans like “Free Tibet, long living H.H Dalai Lama and we want human rights etc” to protest China’s brutality and mistreatment Tibetan across the country since March 2008. Chinese police immediately arrived at the scene, doused the fire, and start to beat Phuntsok so badly and Police trying to take him away from scene so that nobody knows what will happen to him but Tibetans rushed to the scene to save Phuntsok from Chinese hands and took him back to Monastery and make sure Chinese police beat him again to death.
As result of Chinese Police misbehavior, hundreds of Tibetans got angry and immediately gathered at the main market and carried out protests against the Chinese horrible mistreatment to peaceful protectors. Tibetans walked almost a mile from the main market chanting anti-government slogans before being dispersed by Chinese security forces. Troops have been brought in from neighboring areas to quell the protests. Hundreds of Tibetans were arrested, and several others sustained injuries from electric baton and iron rods used by Chinese soldiers on the protesters.

China dairy news accusing Tibetans saying “Refusing to help a dying man is against Buddhist doctrines and such a behavior is a shame”. Rigzin Phuntsok, a 16-year-old monk at Kirti Monastery in Aba County of the Aba Tibetan-Qiang Autonomous Prefecture, died on March 17, more than 10 hours after setting himself on fire.
“A county Chinese spokesman blamed Rigzin Phuntsog's death on treatment delays.”

The monk set himself on fire at March 16. After police put out the fire and start to beat 16 years Phuntsok terribly. A group of monks from the Kirti Monastery seeing a fellow monk is about beat to death therefore, they took action out of compassion and love to save a fellow monk life from beat to death hid him inside the monastery and did whatever they can to save the life unfortunately Phuntsok’s burn was so severe and he was tremendous pain, according reliable source from India.
Source also reported later that night monks and Phuntsok’s family all came together took him to hospital but Rigzin Phuntsok did not respond to emergency treatment and peacefully past away presence of his family members at the hospital because of his severely burn cause so much pain and horribly beating to near death by Chinese police.

The body of the young monk was cremated on March 18 in accordance with Tibetan Now Chinese not only apologize their wrong doing but blamed for hiding the injured monk inside the monastery and obstructing treatment and saying it's against our religious doctrines. We all know that truth and hundred people on the scene eye witnessed that Chinese police beating a Tibetan monk to death still today China turn around shamelessly accusing monks hid Phuntsok caused his death is absolutely baseless.
