Two men sentenced to death in China for Akong Rinpoche murder



Two men have been sentenced to death in China for the homicide of the fellow benefactor of the Samye Ling Buddhist focus in Dumfriesshire.

Akong Rinpoche was cut to death, alongside his nephew and driver, in the Chinese city of Chengdu in 2013.

State-run Chinese News Service said a http://www.indonesia-tourism.com/forum/member.php?189653-mehendidesigthird man was sentenced to three years in prison as far as it matters for him in the murdering.

Akong fled Tibet in 1959, later taking UK citizenship, and established his religious community at Eskdalemuir in 1967.

The Chinese News Service said a court in Chengdu sentenced two men, named as Tudeng Gusang and Tsering Banjue, to death for the homicides of the three men.

It refered to powers as saying that Gusang, who had worked at the Scottish religious community, and Banjue had cut Akong, his nephew and a driver to death in a disagreement about a 2.7 million yuan (£284,000) installment.

The decision, posted by the court on online networking, said the killings were "ruthless" and that the suspects would be "dealt with seriously as per the law".

Tibetan uprising

The Samye Ling Buddist Center was the principal Buddhist religious community to be established in Europe. Understudies later included David Bowie and Leonard Cohen.

Akong was conceived in Tibet in 1939 and immediately recognized as the resurrection of the abbot of the cloister Dolma Lhakang, in the eastern part of the district.

He was enthroned in the cloister at only fourhttps://community.cookinglight.com/member.php?406252-mehendidesigns years of age and afterward started his otherworldly training. In 1959, after the fizzled Tibetan uprising, he fled to India. A couple of years after the fact he moved to Britain.

Tudeng Gusang is accepted to have worked at Samye Ling for a long time making statues and trusted he was owed cash.

At the season of Akong's demise, the religious community said the abbot had kicked the bucket safeguarding reserves that he was disseminating in China
