Leonel Grave de Peralta  

Charge: Arrested during the government’s crackdown of March 2003 (Group of 75)

Sentence: 20 years in prison

Prison: Kilo 5 1/2 . Pinar del Río

Organization: Director- Bartolomé Masó Independent Library

Family: Mariluz Almenares

Address: Calle 7ma. Final. Loma Blanca. Palmarito de Cauto, Mella. Santiago de Cuba. Oriente

Review: Leonel Grave de Peralta has stood firmly on the side of his fellow political prisoners. Once he joined in a hunger strike to protest the physical abused of another prisoner of consciente at the hands of the prison staff. Since he has been sent to the province of Pinar del Río to serve his sentence his family members who reside in the province of Oriente must endure many hardships when they visit him. They have to travel the width of the island and depend on the very unreliable cuban transportation system.

On several occasions Grave de Peralta has been a signatory party to documents denouncing the precarious state of the cuban communist society and its prisons.
