US report names Birtukan political prisoner
 Peter
Heinlein
The U.S. State Department's annual human rights
reports says Ethiopia is holding several hundred
political prisoners, including the leader of one
of the country's largest opposition parties.
Ethiopia has reacted strongly to past U.S.
criticisms of its rights record. The 2009 human
rights report says Birtukan Mideksa, president
of Ethiopia's opposition Unity for Democracy and
Justice party, was held in solitary confinement
for the first six months of the year despite a
court ruling that it violated her constitutional
rights. The 61-page document says there were
credible reports that Birtukan's health
deteriorated significantly during the year.
