#Cuba 🇨🇺🆘 | Activists Omara Ruiz Urquiola, Iliana Hernandez, Camila Acosta, & Abu Duyanah Tamayo were arrested yesterday during a peaceful protest demanding the freedom of artist Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara. Arrested under fabricated charges by the communist dictatorship. The activists were being followed by a young man in the red shirt, identified as a state security agent along with the old man with the hat. They called the police and organize an old fashion repudiating act against the activists. Curiously, older people were used to shout and bully the activists. These older people most likely have no idea who Luis Manuel Otero is. They were sent there with specific orders. They are accusing the artist of being a criminal. There is no justice, due process of presumption of innocence under Castro’s revolution, only an older generation shouting slogans from a dying, decrepit and obsolete ideology.
Omara Ruiz Urquiola is still in unknown whereabouts. She needs her cancer medications. Also, there is no sign of the other activists.
Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara has his first “trial” on March 11 at 9am in the Municipal Court of 10 de Octubre, La Habana.
