💨 Abstract

Three UN Special Rapporteurs have expressed concerns over the detention of Tibetan environmental activist Tsongon Tsering in Sichuan, China. Tsering, a 29-year-old environmental advocate, was sentenced to eight months in prison for "disrupting social order" after protesting against sand extraction by a construction company. The UN has called for clarification on his detention, legal counsel, and communication with family.
