Cuban independent journalist Jose Daniel Ferrer Garcia arrested in Havana
Reports coming out of Cuba indicate that former prisoner of conscience and independent journalist Jose Daniel Ferrer Garica was arrested by Cuban State Security yesterday afternoon.
Via Hablalo Sin Miedo (my translation):
A former prisoner of conscience and coordinator for the Cuba Patriotic Union was arrested this afternoon in Havana. The Castro dictatorship is mistaken if it believes that by taking this man prisoner they will solve the opposition problem in Cuba. This will not stop anyone because there are thousands of people like Jose Daniel willing to do anything for liberty, democracy, and the respect for human rights.
For the weak, the last refuge is violence.
This is Ramón Bolaños Martín speaking, coordinator for the Cuba Patriotic Union in the municipality of Julio Antonio Mella.
End of message.
