Ngawang Sangdrol was first arrested at the age 13 for her participation in a peaceful demonstration in Lhasa and detained for nine months. Few months after her release, she was again arrested for another demonstration and sentenced to three years in Drapchi prison. Due to her activism inside the prison and the clandestine recording of nationalistic songs, her initial sentenced was extended three times; totaling 23 years of prison term. Under heavy international pressure, China has finally released her in 2002 after serving 11 long years in Lhasa’s notorious Drapchi prison.
