Since violent Muslims tend to attack anyone they see as an enemy of Islam and Muslims (e.g.: Indonesia: Muslims attack Buddhists temple), the spread of this fake picture puts Tibetans in danger.
The picture:
“Dharamsala/Jammu, August 15 (Scoop News) – The Central Tibetan Administration based in Dharamsala deeply disturbed and concerned over the circulation of a misleading photograph in some section of the media showing Tibetan monks in their reports on the recent violence in Myanmar involving Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims, said in a statement issued from Dharamsala.
Statement said that a photograph of Tibetan monks standing in front of a pile of dead bodies appeared in many websites in the Muslim countries, especially Pakistan. This photo of Tibetan monks was actually taken during their relief work in Kyegudo (Yushul), eastern Tibet, after a devastating earthquake hit the region on 14 April 2010. The Tibetan monks extended remarkable service in the rescue and relief operations at the time.
The relevant department of the Central Tibetan Administration wrote a letter to a website in Pakistan (ColumPk.com, Urdu Current Affairs Portal) on 30 July to remove the photo from its website, which it did so the next day. But the photo is still in circulation, as some Muslims carrying the photo during their recent protest in Mumbai on 11 August 2012, appeared in Zee News, a leading news channel in India.
Statement appeals to the media across the world not to use this photo, which is being circulated by miscreants to provoke conflict between the Buddhist and Muslim communities.”
Miscreants trying to provoke conflict between Buddhists & Muslims
Its totally fake news published regarding Tibetan monks murdered Muslims circulated through out the news.
In reality the picture circulated online and sites was of (14th April 2010) where massive toll of death took place in Tibet due to earth-quake..dead body were Tibetans who died in earth-quake not an Muslim..
Tibetans in Tibet and exile India have no hand in such issues..they were completely innocent..
Please with due request to their religion i beg Muslims fellow being please don’t take things in wrong way.. Thank you.
Sometimes Ignorance can be very danger. Only real fact or truth can cure that. We must all work together to dispel the darkness of human emotions. May the simple and innocent people of Tibet prevail over this media hype. Peace to all.

But how come all of those guys are naked? I mean why were those people naked when the earthquake hit? or why did the monks take their clothes off?
