The previous year, 2022 marked the 27th anniversary since Tibet's 11th Panchen Lama was forcibly abducted by the Chinese government and his entire family.However, China has not only kept his whereabouts a secret to date but has also not revealed the slightest details regarding whether he is alive or not.Lama's abduction by China is one of the longest-standing cases of enforced disappearance today, reported Tibet Press.On May 14, 1995, Gedun Choekyi Nyima was recognized by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama as the 11th Panchen Lama. Three days after that, he was abducted and has never been found.As if this was not enough, the Chinese Communist Party even took the liberty to appoint a Panchen Lama of their own and forcibly made the Tibetans in Tibet accept him or at least put up an act of the world to show that they do.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
