"False Dalai Lama, stop lying" - protestors chant to Tibetan spiritual leader

Hundreds of people are protesting against the Dalai Lama's visit to a community centre in Aldershot.

The Shugden community claim they have been shunned and persecuted by the Dalai Lama. The dispute stems from a difference in religious beliefs.

The Tibetan spiritual leader used to adhere to the same practices as the Shugden but rejected them in 1975.
