Mother Cries for Son at US Guantanamo Jail
CUBA, January 12, 2007.- Zhora Zewawi, mother of a prisoner at the illegal US jail in Guantanamo, denounced that prisoners at that facility are being violated of the most elemental human rights.
In an interview for Granma daily, Zhora pointed out she has practically no contact with her son Omar Deghayes, from whom she has only received a short letter with corrections, as a sign of censure.
In his letters, Omar is allowed to write only greeting phrases, and cannot refer to the situation in the center, she said. "He is not allowed to move, comb his hair, or change clothes, which are rags," Zhora told the daily with tears on her face.
As part of torture, he has been put in a room with very low temperatures for hours, until he can no longer withstand it and has to scream with cold, the mother indicated.
The pacifist demanded justice for Omar and his fellow inmates and urged mothers of the world to call for closure of the prison.
