The latest official statistics have put the number of innocent civilians killed in the Lhasa riot at 13. Up to 216 households and shops as well as 56 vehicles were badly damaged.
Days after the Lhasa riot was over, more Lhasa citizens spoke out what really happened during riot.
Many of them recalled the terrible scenes where the Dalai-led mob killed innocent lives and destroyed private and public properties.
Drolma is one of the sufferers. On the day when the riot broke out, Drolma was working with her five other co-workers in a clothing shop. She says the mob set fire to every shop including theirs. Only she managed to escape, while the others were burned to death.
"Our shop gate is made of glass. They broke into the shop, and we were so frightened that we cried. I never imagined this could had happened. Earlier that morning we were so happy in the shop. I want to ask those people why they killed so many innocent people."
Luosang Ciren, a Tibetan medical worker, also described the scene of violence. He was beaten by the mob while providing medical services to the injured civilians at the time.
"We were on our way back to the hospital and found an injured civilian who stopped breathing and his heart stopped beating. We carried him onto our vehicle for rescue but the mob came and attacked us even after we had identified ourselves as doctors."
Padma Tsinle, an official with the Tibetan Autonomous Region government, says there is enough evidence to prove that the Dalai Clique has organized the Lhasa riot.
"The Dalai Clique conceived every possible means to contact the monks in Tibet and order them to launch the riot. At the same time, the Dalai Clique also instigated some people who didn't know the truth to join in the sabotage activities. "
Tibetan officials say so far nearly 170 people involved in the sabotage activities have turned themselves in to the local police. Things are getting back to normal in as students are going back to schools and businesses resumed in Lhasa.
