Tibet Violence

Buddhist spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, here on Thursday said Tibetans can't resort to violence to banish Chinese out of Tibet and should learn to coexist peacefully while preserving their identity.

An overseas rights group says three more Tibetan protesters shot and detained by Chinese authorities have died in jail after being denied medical treatment for their injuries, which would bring the death toll in recent violence to five.

Deadly clashes between ethnic Tibetans and Chinese security forces have spread to a second area in southwestern China, the government and an overseas activist group said on Wednesday.
