Tibetan Government-in-Exile in India led by His Holiness the Dalai Lama says more than 140 people were massacred and thousand others were injured by the Chinese army since March 10, 2008, the 49th Anniversary of the Tibetan Uprising Day. The Chinese government claims the death toll is only 22 and accuses the Dalai Lama for 'masterminding' the recent violence inside Chinese occupied Tibet. Is China using the People's Liberation Army to crush the Tibetan people's struggle?
