Friday, October 23, 2015
On Thursday, nearly 20 Cuban dissidents undertook a surprise protest at the headquarters of Castro's Chief Prosecutor on behalf of political prisoners, Zaqueo Baez, Maria Josefa Acon and Ismael Boris, who were arrested on September 20th and are being held incommunicado for approaching Pope Francis during his Mass in Havana.
The protesters called for the release of these political prisoners and threw pamphlets throughout the premises. They were then able to flee and quickly disperse throughout the streets of Havana.
