TEZPUR, India (AP) — The Dalai Lama says Red China vio- lated its pledge of self-rule for Tibet, subjugated the Tibetans and killed or enslaved many Buddhist holy men.
He gave the lie Saturday to Peiping’s assertions that kk had been abducted by rebels.
It was the Tibetan god-king’s first statement on recent events in his Himalayan land and his words were unexpectedly blunt.
Arriving by jeep in this north- east Indian city after his flight from Tibet, the Dalai Lama promptly. denied Red China’s statement that he had been ab- ducted by rebels and forced into India.
“The Dalai Lome would like to state categorically he left Lhasa (the capital) and Tibet. and came te India of his own free will and not’ under duress,”” the statement said.

The 23-year-old spiritual ruler of Tibet emphasized that he fled Lhasa March 17 only after the Chinese Communists attacked his summer palace with mortars.
At almost the same moment as. the Dalai J.ama’s statement was being read, Premier Chou Enlai of Red China was: repeat- ing in Peiping that the god-king was carried off to India by reac- tionary elements.
