According to the State Departments "Country Reports on Human Rights Practices. cases of mistreatment include "cells which are badly ventilated and poorly heated. bad food in extremely small quantities. difficult working conditions. long periods of isolation. excessive use of force by guards. overcrowding. and segregation of persons deemed dangerous to the State because of religious belief or for other reasons." Arrest and detention are often arbitrary. Take. for example. the case of Ioan Ruta who was arrested on trumped up charges after his wife chose to stay in the United States while on a business trip. While in prison his health deteriorated seriously. but for many months he was refused permission to emigrate even though a U.S. hospital offered him full medical treatment. Ruta was recently released from prison and just this week was permitted to emigrateironically. just in time for our debate today on M]FN. In addition to poor treatment of prisoners. there have been several allegations of severe beating and death as a result of police brutality in the past few years. including the mysterious death of an ethnic Hungarian actor. Arpad Visky and the death of GheorgheEmil Ursu while he was detained by the police.
