The Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) has compiled a confirmed list
of total number of deaths, injuries and arrests or detentions of
Tibetans, reported during the peaceful protests in the three
traditional provinces of Tibet, from 10 March 2008 – 25 April 2008.

These figures are based on information and news reports
collected from 6 different sources, namely, Chinadigitaltimes.net,
Tibetan Center for Human Rights and Democracy (TCHRD), China’s State
Media and Lhasa Radio, Radio Free Asia (RFA)/Callers from Tibet and
Department of Security (CTA).

Various facts and figures given by the different sources have
been meticulously examined and tallied with each other. After having
done this, we confirm that the actual figure for the number of dead is
203, the number of injured is more than 1,000 and the number of those
still detained is more than 5,715. These are figures for Tibetans who
died, are injured and still in detention throughout Tibet as of today.
