Tension in tibet

Chinese officials have found explosives under a bridge in Tibet. Almost a year after deadly riots erupted in the Tibetan capital Lhasa and triggered unrest in Tibetan areas of neighboring provinces, Chinese security forces remained on high alert. This heightened security is due to the fact of the anniversary of Tibet's spritual leader, the Dalai Lama, who fled to India after an abortive uprising against Chinese rule in 1959.
