Gaya (Bihar): Indian security agencies launched a massive search for a suspected Chinese woman spy in Bihar's Gaya. The Chinese woman is suspected to have come to spy on the movements of Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama who is in Gaya for almost a month. A sketch of the Chinese woman has also been circulated by the police as part of the hunt.
Considering the threat perception, the Buddhist religious leader Dalai Lama has been given a four-layer security during his current stay in Bodh Gaya. The Gaya police are searching for the suspected Chinese woman and are also taking the help of social media in the process. The Central security and intelligence agencies have also been informed about this. They have also started the process of locating the woman.
The Chinese woman has been living in different parts of the country and has now reached Gaya, said sources. Harpreet Kaur, SSP Gaya said, "the suspected Chinese woman spy has not been identified yet.

The Dalai Lama and the Tibetan government have been in exile for years now. When China annexed Tibet, the Dalai Lama fled to India with some thousand followers in 1959. Currently, Dharamshala, located in northern India, houses the Tibetan government-in-exile and the Dalai Lama.
