Wife rejects offer of prison facilities
for conjugal visit
CAIBARIÉN, Cuba, September 19 (Alexander
Francisco García Mujica, Villa Blanca
Press / www.cubanet.org) - The wife of political
prisoner Jorge Luis González Tanquero
decided prison officials were making fun
of her and decided to forgo a conjugal visit
with her husband last week..
Officials at the Mangas prison at Bayamo,
in Granma province, had told Marlene González
Conesa beforehand that she'd have 12 hours
in the conjugal facilities for her September
10 visit, which fell on her birthday.
But after making the 100-mile trip to the
prison, she was told that it would be impossible
to see her husband. Finally, the prison
chief, a man named Moré, authorized
a three-hour visit.
"This was all premeditated and designed
to make fun of me and my husband,"
she said.
She left without seeing her husband, who
was arrested in the crackdown of 2003 and
is serving a 20-year sentence.
