‘Measures to foil attempts on dalai life’
Claiming that Chinese agencies are stepping up efforts to harm the Dalai Lama, the Tibetan government-in-exile on Sunday said measures will be taken to foil any possible attempt on his life, including through “drugs and poisonous chemicals”.
After the Kashag (Tibetan cabinet) met to review the Dalai’s security in the wake of the spiritual leader’s remarks on threat to his life from Chinese agents, spokesman of the Central Tibetan Administration said “the security of His Holiness the Dalai Lama is a matter of great concern”.
Accusing the Chinese government of launching an “unprecedented offensive campaign” against the 76-year-old Dalai Lama in Tibet and during his visits outside India, the Tibetan authority said although the Dalai Lama “takes security threat to his person lightly, there are a variety of threats to his well-being that the security agencies are obliged to take it seriously.” “...Chinese intelligence agencies are making concrete plans to harm His Holiness by employing well-trained agents, particularly females.
“It is also learnt that they are exploring the possibility of harming him by using ultra-modern and highly sophisticated drugs and poisonous chemicals. “In another report received in October 2011, it is also learnt that Chinese agencies have stepped up their efforts to collect intelligence on the status of His Holiness’ health.

Clashes: Major went to cops against jawan
Leh, May 20: An Army major, who was involved in the recent bloody clashes among military personnel here, had approached the Jammu and Kashmir police to register a case against a sepoy for allegedly molesting his wife.
The major came to the senior superintendent of police Vivek Gupta’s office here with a verbal complaint about the brawl that took place in Nyoma, 150 kilometres from here on May 10-11, and also informed him about the alleged molestation of his wife by a sepoy, official sources said on Sunday.
Sources said the major was advised by the police that any action could be taken only after the officer came through a proper channel or with a written complaint as the police will then have to probe the entire case that took place during a firing camp in Nyoma. When contacted, Northern Army Command spokesperson Lt. Col. Rajesh Kalia said he was not aware of such development and declined to make any comments saying an Army court of inquiry was underway. — PTI
