Updated March 28

Evidence is ac***ulating that the Chinese regime orchestrated violence
in Lhasa in order to discredit the peaceful protests of Buddhist
monks.

According to the Dalai Lama's Chinese translator, Ngawang Nyendra, a
witness re****ted that a Chinese policeman in Lhasa disguised himself
as a Tibetan and joined the protesters holding a knife in his hand.
This witness also recognized the man from BBC news footage and news
photos provided by China.

A Chinese woman from Thailand (who prefers that her name not be used)
was studying in Lhasa when the protests broke out in March. As one of
her friends is a policeman, she visited him at the local police
station quite often and got to know other policemen there.

After the protests on March 14, she and other foreigners were sent to
the police station where she saw a man with a knife in his hand
walking in with some arrested Tibetans. The man later took off the
Tibetan-style clothes and put on a police uniform.

This woman was sent out of Lhasa with other foreigners the next day.
When she arrived in India via Nepal, she recognized the policeman she
had seen in Tibetan garb from BBC TV news and photos that the Chinese
embassy had provided to the media.
This is a cropped copy of the photo released by the Chinese Embassy
pur****ting to show a Tibetan with a knife taking part in a riot.

Ngawang Nyendra said the witness was shocked when she saw the
policeman in the BBC broadcast. She realized then that the man had
disguised himself as a Tibetan in order to incite people to riot.

The witness contacted a Tibetan organization in India and told them
what she had seen. At a rally on March 17, the organization publicized
a news photo originally provided by the Chinese Embassy in India in
which the policeman appeared as a Tibetan rioter.

On Xinhua and other Chinese-language Web sites friendly to the regime,
after the rally at which the witness spoke, the policeman in disguise
had disappeared from photos taken at the same scene in which he had
previously been visible. Recently, the original man-with-the-knife
photo has returned to these Web sites.

Ngawang Nyendra said, "This photo with this man in it was sent by the
Chinese embassy to BBC and Radio Free Asia. The other photo was sent
out later. They are exactly the same except the man has disappeared
from the second photo.

"From the TV news footage, you can see this man attempting to stab
other people with a knife. But in later shots you can't find this
person any more. They were acting. After people raised questions about
these shots, this footage never appeared on TV again."
This is a copy of the picture of the same scene in Lhasa but with the
man with the knife now missing, which was distributed after the man's
identity was revealed at a rally in Darmasala.

Other Evidence

The main claim of the dramatic story told last week by the Dalai
Lama's translator--that the Chinese regime incited the riots in Lhasa--
has lately found corroboration from other sources.

There is first of all the Chinese regime's track record of staging
this kind of deception.

This is not the first time that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has
sent policemen to act as rioters in civilian protests in Tibet to stir
up violence and frame the protesters.

In his "Events in Lhasa March 2-10, 1989", the Chinese journalist Tang
Daxian revealed how the CCP orchestrated violence as part of a plan to
suppress the 1989 protests in Tibet.

According to the article, "On the dawn of March 5, the Armed Police in
Tibet received the action order from the Chief Commander of Armed
Police headquarter, Mr. Li Lianxiu....The Special Squad should
immediately assign 300 members to be disguised as ordinary citizens
and Tibetan monks, entering the Eight-Corner Street and other riot
spots in Lhasa, to sup****t plain-clothes police to complete the task.

"Burn the Scripture Pagoda at the northeast of Dazhao Temple. Smash
the rice store in the business district, incite citizens to rob rice
and food, attack the Tibet-Gansu Trading Company. Encourage people to
rob store products, but, only at the permitted locations."

According to the commentator Mr. Chen Pokong, "In this year's protest,
the riot scene was quite similar to that of 1989. A group of young men
in their twenties acted in a well organized way. They first shouted
slogans, then burnt some vehicles near the Ramoche Monastery, and then
broke into nearby stores and robbed them, and finally burnt scores of
the stores.

"The actions seemed well planned and coordinated, and were conducted
with skill. At the crossroads near the Ramoche Monastery, someone
prepared in advance many stones of a similar size, each weighing a
couple of kilograms. These stones magically escaped the attention of
numerous policemen and plainclothes agents who flooded the city."

Mr. Chen's account of what happened this year is corroborated by the
British high-tech spy agency GCHQ, whose satellites observed Chinese
police incite the riots in Lhasa, according to a re****t in the G2
Bulletin.
The upper ****tion shows the unaltered photo; the lower ****tion shows
the edited version.

These accounts also help make sense of puzzling aspects of a re****t in
the New York Times on the scene on the streets of Lhasa on March 14.

According to the NY Times, "Foreigners and Lhasa residents who
witnessed the violence were stunned by what they saw, and by what they
did not see: the police. Riot police officers fled after an initial
skirmish and then were often nowhere to be found."

"One monk reached by telephone said other monks noticed that several
officers were more interested in shooting video of the violence than
stopping it. 'They were just watching,' the monk said. 'They tried to
make some videos and use their cameras to take some photos,'"
according to the NY Times.

The publication of the photo of the man with the knife by Xinhua and
its distribution by the Chinese Embassy, as re****ted by the Dalai
Lama's translator, would be consistent with this monk's observation.

Meanwhile, the Tibetans continue to assert that the Chinese regime has
been hoodwinking the world about what happened during the protests in
Lhasa.

30 young monks broke into a press briefing behind held on Thursday by
the Chinese regime in Jokhang Temple in Lhasa. According to USA Today
re****ter Callum MacLeod (as re****ted by Reuters), the young monks
shouted, "Don't believe them. They are tricking you. They are telling
lies."
