Dissident facing restrictions on telephone calls
HAVANA, February 14 (Jorge Olivera Castillo / www.cubanet.org) - The
wife of imprisoned independent journalist Héctor Maseda says that, as a
condition for being allowed to make more than 25 minutes of telephone
calls a week, he must reveal those he plans to call and their telephone
numbers.
His wife, Laura Pollán, says he has refused to accept the conditions,
which will limit the contact he has with friends and relatives.
The law stipulates that prisoners can make 25 minutes of calls per week.
Pollán says this is the first time a condition has been placed on his
calls in the nearly three years he has been imprisoned. A member of the
Group of 75 arrested in 2003, he is serving a 20-year sentence.
