Cuban journalist in punishment cell
HAVANA, August 20 (www.cubanet.org) - Imprisoned
Cuban journalist Fabio Prieto has been confined
to a punishment cell at Guanajay prison, presumably
for insulting a Department of State Security officer
known as Omar.
Prieto, 41, is serving a 20-year sentence at
the prison. Recently he had been transferred to
a cell block holding hardened criminals serving
30-year and life sentences.
Prieto is in a darkened cell about four-and-a-half
feet wide, without a sanitary facility or electricity.
He gets one meal a day, is not allowed to take
the Sun during the 21-day period, and is not allowed
any personal belongings.
