"Preventing a prisoner from seeing his family or having a clean cell is a flagrant violation of human rights," Reporters Without Borders has said, "the injustice of sentencing this journalist to a year in prison is being compounded by his conditions of detention and staging a hunger strike has become his only way of making himself heard."
“Evitar que un preso vea a su familia o que tenga una celda limpia es una flagrante violación de los derechos humanos", dijo Reporteros sin Fronteras, “la injusticia de sentenciar a este periodista a un año de prisión se ha agravado por las condiciones de su detención y realizar una huelga de hambre se ha convertido en la única manera de hacerse escuchar.”
