Prominent dissident transferred to new prison after medical tests

SANTA CLARA, Cuba, November 22 (www.cubanet.org) - René Montes de Oca, secretary-general of the Human Rights Party, has been transferred from a local prison to one in Havana after it was determined he had parasites.

Montes de Oca is serving an eight-year prison sentence for insulting a government official.

His sister, Yakelín Montes de Oca, said that the head of the Pendiente prison in Santa Clara conceded that the parasites came from contaminated water. They were discovered after an ultrasound test, she said.
