Chinese security forces shot dead another Tibetan protester in the restive Sichuan province, rights groups said Friday, bringing to at least three the number killed in deadly clashes this week.

Urgen, a 20-year-old Tibetan, was killed Thursday in Sichuan's Rangtang county when police fired into a crowd trying to stop them from detaining another man, the US-based International Campaign for Tibet and India-based TCHRD said.
