Former PM on hunger strike (Neptune / Haiti)
February 27, 2005
The Sun-Herald

Haiti's imprisoned former prime minister Yvon Neptune has started a hunger strike to protest against his detention.

Mr Neptune, who was arrested eight months ago, said in a letter to several foreign ambassadors that he began the hunger strike seven days ago and would continue it until he is freed by Haiti's interim government, which he said had jailed him for political reasons.
