Unlike Blair, Brown has kept his moral compass

"Children killed, a school turned into a graveyard: even in war, we can’t accept this. There are rules & world leaders must insist they are honoured."

Thank you @TheTimes & team. Rapke told me, “You saved my life”—more than an honor, it brought tears instantly. We hope all Nepalese in Tibetan prisons are safe, and we seek facts while following the Vienna Convention. “Not against anyone—only here to protect our people.”

[Arjuna Keshvani-Ham @arjuna_ham]

Nepali citizen Rapke Lama was detained without trial in some of Tibet’s most notorious prisons - including Drapchi in Lhasa, infamous for human rights abuses and harbouring political prisoners. His is the first testimony to emerge from Drapchi in over a decade. Six months after his release Rapke tells his story. Special thanks to @Rajgurkha for making this story possible - and @RobbieBarnett @anilkathmandu @Ankit__T
