FROM
CUBA
Political prisoner held in punishment cell;
wife denied visit
HAVANA, June 17 (Moisés Leonardo
Rodríguez Valdés, Grupo Decoro
- www.cubanet.org) - After Aniley Puentes
traveled more than 230 miles in Cuba's precarious
transportation system to visit her imprisoned
husband, she was refused the visit by prison
authorities at the Agüica prison, in
Matanzas province.
Puentes started her journey the day before
in Manuel Lazo township, Pinar del Río
province, and traveled with her mother and
her infant daughter.
After a six-hour wait at the prison, officials
told Puentes that her husband, Fidel Suárez,
was in a punishment cell because he had
refused to be transferred to a ward with
dangerous inmates.
Puentes, who was carrying some foodstuffs
for her husband, was not allowed to deliver
them.
