CAIBARIÉN, Cuba, January 23 (Juan
Carlos Parrado Crespo, Villa Blanca Press
/ www.cubanet.org) - Normando Hernández
González, an independent journalist
imprisoned at the Kilo 5 ½ prison
in Pinar del Río province, hasn't
been receiving any medical assistance, according
to his wife.
Yaraí Reyes Marín said he
is in "a deplorable state of health"
and that prison guards refuse to allow him
any medicine brought in from the outside.
"At my last family visit, I found
him very weak," she said, adding that
he has lost 20pounds.
She said he complains of stomach aches
and has stropped eating prison food.
