CIEGO DE AVILA, Cuba, April 11(Abel Escobar
Ramírez / www.cubanet.org) - More
than 100 people congregated outside the
home of Apolinar Borroto, 63, president
of the Cuban Foundation for Human Rights
in the municipality of Jatibonico in Sancti
Spíritus province last week and shouted
pro-government slogans.
Independent journalist Luís Esteban
Espinosa said the pro-government protesters
were led by Silvia Pérez Castañeda,
president of the local block committee.
Among the phrases shouted were "Down
with Imperialism!" "Terrorist!"
and "Mercenary!"
Borroto's home was recently the site of
an anti-government demonstration marking
the third anniversary of the arrest and
sentencing of 75 dissidents.
