President. in Romania. arrest and detention are often arbitrary. Take. for example. the case of Ioan Ruta. who was arrested on trumpedup charges after his wife chose to stay in the United States after 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. In addition to poor treatment of prisoners. there have been several allegations of severe beating and death as a result of police brutality in recent years. Repression of ethnic minorities is a growing human rights problem in Romania.
