Review: Manuel Ubals González has declared himself a “plantado” in order to officially affirm his political prisoner status. Plantado is the name given to cuban political prisoners who refuse to cooperate with the prison authorities. Their refusal to wear the uniform used for common prisoners and to follow any orders that mey compromiso their status are based on the principle that they are not common prisoners and have not committed any crime, but are simply imprisoned due to their political beliefs.
General Rafael Tamayo Calderín is the director of prisons in Cuba and has declared that prisoners of conscience who resist to be treated as common prisoners will be dealt with in the most severe manner.
