The Times, UK, reports on Peking’s drive to cut off the Dalai Lama’s escape routes:
There is growing concern here at the continuing absence of news about the progress of the Dalai Lama and his party. It is claimed that even on muleback he should by now have had time to reach Bhutan or the Indian border, but there is still no indication of his whereabouts.
Reports from Lhasa speak of energetic and increasing efforts by the Chinese to intercept the fugitives.
