Martha Beatriz Roque Cabello has serous
health problems
HAVANA, January 7 (www.cubanet.org) -
Reports from the Carlos J. Finlay military
hospital say that dissident Martha Beatriz
Roque Cabello, serving a 20-year prison
sentence, is facing serious health problems.
A leading promoter of civil society in
Cuba, Roque Cabello has been diagnosed with
uterine cancer but, according to medical
personnel in the hospital, tests have not
been carried out to determine the best drugs
to use to combat the disease.
As well, Roque Cabello is suffering from
diabetes, inflamed salivary glands and arthritis.
She was among 75 dissidents sentenced last
April during a crackdown on government opponents
and moved from prison to the hospital as
her health worsened.
