Since his unjust arrest, Lhundrub Drakpa has disappeared. He was moved to an undisclosed location, and there are still no details concerning his health or whereabouts.
Tibetan political prisoners are frequently denied legal representation and healthcare and endure torture, sometimes even leading to death.
Lhundrub Drakpa is a popular Tibetan singer from Driru County in Nagchu, central Tibet. In March 2019, he released his song “Black Hat”, which criticises CCP policies, singing how “the voice of the six million Tibetans is gagged” and lamenting the “sorrow of the people of the Land of Snow”.
By May 2019, he had been arrested.
After more than a year in detention, during which time he was beaten, Lhundrub Drakpa stood trial and, in June 2020, was sentenced to six years in prison. His current location is unknown.
This Day of the Disappeared, 30 August, we reaffirm our commitment to seeing Lhundrub Drakpa released and stand in solidarity with him and Tibet’s other political prisoners.
Use our simple tool to contact the TAR Regional Government, urging them to release Lhundrub Drakpa immediately.
