(GUANTANAMO, February 18th)- Arístides Moya Herrera, a 26 years old
common prisoner who is serving a 30 year sentence in Combinado de Guantanamo was
brutally beaten under the orders of the re–educator of Ward 4-A, known as
Robertico.
This prisoner was handcuffed when a group of prisoners made up of highly
dangerous criminals showed up and brutally beat him leaving him with a sprained
in his right arm and bruises on his face, head and his entire body.
The motive for this criminal act against Moya Herrera was in retaliation for
confronting officials when they tried to humiliate him.

President of the Club of former prisoners and political prisoners of Cuba
Alberto Martínez Fernández, who formally denounced before the
international public opinion, to René L. Díaz, President of the
FSPECA, brothers and sisters in the Exile Community, Radio Martí and

Martínez Martínez, who was transferred to Combinado de Guantánamo
this past November 18th, 2001, pending a trial for the "presumed"
crime of illegally exiting national territory.
"My son Albertico was released extremely ill, so much so, that at the
moment he is hospitalized in critical condition with acute leptopirosis, better
known as "rat fever", he also has hepatitis. I am almost positive
that he was released two days before the trial because they knew that my son
was going to die in prison"- stated Martínez Fernández.
Presently, he is in floor 5th D, bed # 22 at the Agustino Neto Hospital in
the city of Guantanamo – indicated Martínez Fernandez.
Alberto (the father) is sending this SOS asking for the support and
intercession of all human rights organizations, also from the people and
organizations above mentioned on behalf of his 17 year old son who is being
victimized by the State Security in Guantanamo.
Alberto Martinez Martinez at such a young age, wrote a compelling letter to
his loving father explaining his reasons for leaving national territory.
This declaration of Alberto Martínez Fernández was
broadcated live from Guantánamo, to the weekly radio program of Lux
Magazine. Given to the Information Bridge Cuba Miami on February 16th, 2002. |
