- Dissidents in Bayamo, in the eastern Cuban
province of Granma, report they have been
warned by State Security officials they
would be jailed "immediately"
for any activities carried out during the
official celebration of the anniversary
of Castro's revolution July 26.
Francisco Juan Reyes, a labor activist,
and Gabriel Díaz, member of a youth
organization, said they and other anti-government
activists had been visited at home by State
Security captain Julio César Sánchez,
who warned them that any activity or even
the apparition of anti-government graffiti
during the festivities would result in their
being automatically apprehended.
This year, Bayamo has been selected to
be the official site of the celebration,
with the possible appearance of Castro himself.
