Chinese authorities in Tibet have increased surveillance and interrogation of Tibetans in an effort to Prevent Communication with individuals outside of Tibet. The heightened security measures began in March and have continued into June, with police closely monitoring residents in Lhasa and conducting random searches of their cell phones and online communications. The authorities are particularly concerned about Tibetans being in contact with journalists or researchers outside of Tibet. Those who have been found to have communicated with outsiders have been summoned for interrogation, had their cell phones confiscated, and are under constant scrutiny.
