Cuba: imprisoned journalist begins hunger strike

Cuba: imprisoned journalist begins hunger strike

José Hubaldo Izquierdo Hernández, of the news agency Grupo de Trabajo
Decoro, said on 29 November that he was starting a hunger strike to
protest against the lack of medical care in prison. He said he would
refuse all solid food until he was moved to prison to receive
appropriate treatment.

Izquierdo Hernández, 42, who has been in jail since the roundups of
March 2003, is serving a 16-year sentence at Guanajay prison in Havana
province.
