Anti-Castro signs appear in two towns
HAVANA, Cuba - July 8 (Guillermo Fariñas,
Cubanacán Press / Rosa María
Montoya, APLO / www.cubanet.org) - During
the past week anti-Castro signs have appeared
in two interior towns, touching off a police
search for the authors.
Two signs, one saying "Castro murderer"
and the other "Castro turn on the light,"
an allusion to current power outages, were
posted in Las Tosas, near Santi Spiritus,
according to Raimundo Perdigón Brito,
representative of the dissident November
30 Frank Pais Democratic Party.
One of the signs was found a couple of
hundred feet from the guest house used by
Castro's security detail.
The other signs appeared in the old train
station in San Luis near Santiago de Cuba.
One said "Down with Fidel" while
others showed the president in humorous
poses, such as distributing cooking pots
designed to use less energy.
Comments of residents indicate that the
protests result from recent power blackouts
from 9 p.m. to 11 a.m. also from reports
of anemia among secondary school students.
