Anti-government graffiti in Holguín

HOLGUIN, Cuba - August 25 (Liannis Meriño Aguilera, Jóvenes sin Censura / www.cubanet.org) - Someone wrote anti-government slogans on the walls of a bus stop across the street from a military post in Banes, Holguín municipality last weekend.

The graffiti read "Down with Fidel" and "We don't want Raúl," in chalk. A detachment from the political police, headed by Major Wilson Ramírez, of the Department of State Security, converged on the site in the early morning and cleaned up the wall after thoroughly photographing it.

Later in the day, the local contingent of the "Rapid Response Brigades," the government directed mobs who prosecute all those not in agreement with government policies, were gathered at the fire station and told to "be watchful of acts of disobedience like this one."
