China's free cremation service...
The TibetCustom.com website reports:
"The Pubic Security Bureau (PSB) forcefully took the body of Lhakpa Tsering from his family telling them that some investigations needed to be done at the Peoples Procuratorates. His body was later cremated in Toelung (west of Lhasa) and only his ashes were returned to his family in a plastic bag with his name written on it.
On March 24, Kunga (a monk from Chokri monastery) in Drakgo (Ch: Luhuo) County, Karze "Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture," Sichuan province, was shot and killed during a demonstration at Chokri Monastery. On March 25, his body was forcefully taken from Chokri monastery and cremated nearby."
TibetCustom.com also publish a list on the same page with the names of 44 Tibetans identified to have been killed in the riots so far of a total of around 140.
It seems the Chinese Government's body count is quite a bit lower then the Tibetans claim - perhaps cremations are not counted as deaths?
