Nobel prize winner's prison visits suspended
The Chinese prison where Nobel Peace Prize winner Liu Xiaobo is held has suspended visits by his family members and his wife remains under house arrest, a week after the award ceremony, a human rights group said today.
Liu's brother Liu Xiaoguang told the Hong Kong-based Information Centre for Human Rights and Democracy that the Jinzhou prison notified the family of the suspension recently. The rights centre announced it on the family's behalf.
