A popular Tibetan content creator, known online as Lhamo, was brutally attacked and killed by her ex-husband while she was live-streaming on Douyin, China's version of TikTok. The incident took place in her father's kitchen as more than 400 viewers watched her broadcast.
According to reports, a man suddenly burst into the room, prompting Lhamo to scream in fear before the livestream abruptly went dark. Investigations later revealed that the intruder was her ex-husband, Tang, who doused her in gasoline and set her on fire.
Lhamo, in her 30s, had repeatedly filed complaints of domestic violence against Tang, but her pleas for protection went unanswered. She often streamed her cooking from remote mountains and open fields—places her followers assumed were chosen for creativity, but were, in reality, attempts to stay away from her abuser.
She was rushed to a hospital and battled for her life in the ICU for two weeks. Despite medical efforts, she succumbed to her injuries. The case sparked widespread outrage across China over the failure to protect victims of domestic abuse.
Tang was later arrested, tried, and executed in 2022.
