I hope Chushul prison will soon be emptied of all prisoners of conscience: Dawa Gyaltsen spent major part of his sentence in Chushul Prison, where incarceration means brutal mistreatment and torture of political prisoners. He was serving an 18-year prison term when he was released sometime last month, two years earlier than the expected date for exhibiting “good behaviour”. Tibetan sources say Dawa Gyaltsen (Ch: Dawa Jianzan) is in poor health, with the limp in one of his legs having worsened over the years due to ill-treatment and torture in prison for 17 years.
