Mar. 27 - Tibetan monks disrupt an official news briefing at a temple in
Lhasa, accusing the Chinese authorities of lying about recent unrest.

The monks at the Jokhang Temple, the most sacred temple in Tibet, barged
into a news briefing for foreign journalists. Chinese authorities have
brought a select group of foreign and Chinese re****ters to Lhasa for a
three-day tour of the city that was rocked by anti-Chinese violence on
March 14. Chinese state television re****ted the journalists' visit but
made no mention of the outbursts by the monks.

Michelle Carlile-Alkhouri re****ts.
