Cuba, Pinar del Rio, San Juan y Martinez. ( Via telephone, audio at the end , PRC) - As part of the actions begun on September 1, 2015, on Tuesday the 14th at approximately 4:40 PM, activists from the PRC, FLAMUR, and IJR attempted to enter the San Juan Bautista Parish to read a statement. They were denied entry and physically and verbally assaulted, with the SS displaying their intolerance and complicity with the religious authorities of the church. The SS did not seem to care about the purpose of the activists' presence, as reported by Ms. Irina Caridad León, director of the PRC in the province of Pinar del Rio.
(Via telephone) - At 8:00 PM, Ms. Irina Caridad León Valladares reported again that a group of opposition members remained camped outside the San Juan Bautista Parish, surrounded by a large SS operation. This display of intolerance was taking place in front of curious onlookers and opposition members from various organizations belonging to the Pinar del Río Democratic Alliance in the municipality of San Juan y Martínez, who were supporting the protesters. The group consisted of Michael Valladares Cala, president of Impacto Juvenil Republicano in the province of Pinar del Río; Leodan Suarez Quiñones, provincial treasurer of the PRC; Osmany Miranda Prieto; and Agustin Raul Linares Alvarez, both members of the PRC.
(Via telephone) - At 12:30 AM, Ms. Irina Caridad León Valladares informed us that the group was still protesting and that the SS, along with their henchmen, were surrounding and insulting the activists in an attempt to terrorize them. The same was happening around her house, where her mother was suffering from high blood pressure and was extremely distressed. The municipal opposition, along with the Pinar del Río Democratic Alliance, continued to support the protesters. Irina blames the SS for any unfortunate outcome that might occur to the protesters or to her mother, who is surrounded by proxies at her home. The atheist donkey and his flock, awaiting the Pope's visit to put on a sheepish show, became agitated by some activists who wanted to read a statement and showed his true colors in these Pyrrhic battles.
(Via telephone) - At 3:30 AM, the opposition members were violently evicted, and the leader of the Republican Youth Impact group in the province is missing. The Castro regime's SS informed his mother that he would be taken from the hospital to prison. One interpretation of this is that they may not want the injuries he sustained to be seen. The rest were taken to the station, interrogated, threatened, and given a warning letter.
