Tibetan activists detained outside Chinese Embassy in New Delhi

Dozens of Tibetan Youth Congress activists protested outside the Chinese Embassy in New Delhi on 7 July, calling for a 'Free Tibet' and condemning Chinese rule in the region.

The footage shows demonstrators carrying placards bearing the image of Tibetan activist Rangzen Lobga, chanting slogans and trying to approach the embassy before police detained them.

Officers carried protesters to waiting buses while others continued shouting slogans from the windows after their detention.

The demonstration followed the death of Rangzen Lobga, who self-immolated outside the United Nations headquarters in New York City on 2 July.
