The management of the Joint Prisons in Guantanamo has had conversations with the political prisoners in the prison, among whom is the independent journalist Roberto de Jesus Quiñones Haces, to warn them that they cannot speak in favor of the national coordinator of the Patriotic Union of Cuba (UNPACU) Jose Daniel Ferrer Garcia, who is imprisoned in the Aguadores prison in that province.
