Family, friends of US contractor held in Cuba plead for US to do more to secure release | Fox News

Family, friends of US contractor held in Cuba plead for US to do more to secure release | Fox News:

"The Maryland resident, who repeatedly has denied working for any intelligence agency, was arrested by Cuban authorities in 2009, stripped of his rights and thrown into a foreign prison.

Since then, his family has worked tireless – and unsuccessfully -- to bring him home.
Gross currently is being held at the Carlos Finlay Military Hospital in the Havana Providence in Cuba where he spends 23 hours a day in a small cell with two other men. He is let out of his cramped quarters for an hour each day, led to a small courtyard with high walls and if he is lucky, he gets to catch a glimpse of the sun. After his 60 minutes are up, the 64-year-old man who is facing another long decade behind bars heads back to his cell. "
