Abstract
- China said Wednesday that judicial authorities in Tibet had imposed prison terms for 21 additional people convicted of participating in the deadly riots last March, bringing the total number punished for the mayhem to 76. The new punishments, announced by Xinhua, the official news agency, came three months after the first batch of 55 convicted rioters were sentenced to terms ranging from three years to life for crimes that included robbery, arson and disturbing public order.
