PINAR DEL RIO, April 23 (Víctor Rolando Arroyo, UPECI) - Three municipal secretaries of the Communist Party in Pinar del Río province were demoted following strong criticism by General Raúl Castro of their performance.

The three, first secretaries of the Sandino, San Luis, and Pinar del Río municipalities, were "liberated from their duties" at the request of provincial Party authorities. None lived in the municipality in which he served, contrary to the stated principles of the Party.

Last week, General Raúl Castro had criticized provincial leaders for lack of motivation and for failing to recruit new members to the Party.
