BEIJING, Oct 28 (AFP) - China has put online a video documentary attacking the Dalai Lama, Xinhua reported Tuesday.

The 90-minute documentary on the Nobel Laureate "shows how he practices serfdom in Tibet, defected from his motherland and engaged in activities directed at splitting China," the official news agency said.

The film is the first Chinese-made documentary on Tibet's spiritual leader to be put on the Internet.

China has kept tight security over Tibet and has accused the Dalai Lama of trying to split the troubled province from the mainland.

Beijing has prohibited Buddhist Tibetan monasteries and followers from displaying pictures of the Dalai Lama who leads an India-based government in exile.
