Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Human Rights First.The short explanation of this alert was:
Cuban prison authorities have refused to administer necessary medical tests despite pleas from his wife and a physician's diagnosis that such tests are needed. The Cuban authorities are obligated under international standards to provide prisoners with necessary medical care. Mr. Gonzalez was arrested along with several others preparing to attend a demonstration in front of the French Embassy in Havana to demand greater European attention to the plight of political prisoners in Cuba. He is one of seven who remain in detention almost 16 months after that incident, despite not having been charged with any crime. Mr. Gonzalez' health is worsening, exacerbated by unhygienic prison conditions and poor medical care. Please join Human Rights First in demanding his immediate and unconditional release.
