Prisoners demand sex and pizza
Prisoners at a maximum security jail in Mexico are protesting after losing privileges including sex and pizzas.
An investigation at La Palma Prison, near Mexico City, found inmates enjoying a host of illegal benefits.
They included conjugal visits, takeaway pizzas, flat screen TVs and mobile phones.
But the prisoners complained they were being treated "like dogs" when the privileges were taken away.
They pooled their resources and took out an ad in La Reforma, one of Mexico's main newspapers, complaining of their situation.
In it, they appealed the Mexican president Vincent Fox to restore their old benefits and complained of the "inhumane way" they were being treated.
