dc.description.abstractThe program reports on the findings of a nine member delegation of the International Health and Human Rights Group visit to Haiti. The group investigated human rights abuses and health conditions of prisoners. Michael Norton, a BBC correspondent in Haiti, provides details of the group’s visit to the Haitian National Penitentiary, and reports on the health and abuse of four political prisoners. Secondly, the introduction of the US government owned television station, TV Marti, in Cuba generates strong protest from the Cuban government who threatens to stop the broadcast to Cubans by jamming the signals. In the Financial Market, Michael Spriggs, gold analyst, predicts the rise in gold prices in the midst of recent drops in the price of gold. In the next segment, a parliamentary support committee published a report outlining the rise of racial attacks in Britain with Scotland Yard recording more than 2500 attacks in 1989. Further comments and information on the racial assaults are provided by Rajiv Menon, Andrew Wilson of Scotland Yard and John Wheeler, Chair of Parliamentary Home Affairs Committee. The program concludes with Cricket News of the attempts by Surrey English County Team to persuade Barbadian fast-bowler, Ezra Moseley to join their team.en_US
