PINAR DEL RÍO, Cuba, October 5
(Rafael Ferro Salas, UPECI / cubanet.org)
- Journalists from several foreign news
agencies duly accredited in Cuba were denied
clearance to report on the victims of hurricane
Ivan in Pinar del Río province. According
to the report, the government posted political
police agents around the shelters in which
some hurricane victims have been taken in.
"At no time were members of the foreign
press corps allowed into the shelters, much
less to talk to the victims of the hurricane,
who were resident of the fishing village
of La Coloma, on the south coast of the
province.
