Gilber Caro’s Hunger
By Manuel Llorens - September 18, 2017
Gilber Caro has sewn his lips shut.
Imprisoned since January in a 2×3 meter cell, he can barely lie down. Isolated, he has read the books they allow him over and over again. He was allowed to see sunlight one hour per day, but this “privilege” was suspended a few weeks ago.
He’s an
elected member of the National Assembly, arrested despite his
parliamentary immunity.
Jailed without charges for 121 days, then taken to a
military court (even though he’s a civilian), Gilber was charged with treason. According to the authorities (who are also holding his girlfriend, Steyci Escalona, as a way to force a “confession”), he drove through the country with a stolen assault rifle in the backseat of his car, planning to murder opposition leaders and sow chaos.
That’s the information on the public record, the rest of his case is confidential.
