See Tibetan Protester Burn Himself Against Chinese President's Visit to India - Photos


A Tibetan exile lit himself on fire and ran shouting through a protest in the Indian capital on Monday, just ahead of a visit by China's president and following self-immolations in the Himalayan region against Beijing's rule.

Jamphel Yeshi carried out the self-immolation as he ran near the speakers at a rally near the Indian Parliament in the country's capital.

The Tibetan sustained burns on 98 per cent of his body and his condition in hospital was described as critical today.
