Deisy Talavera López, who was arrested Jan. 31 after she put up at poster on her home's front door demanding the release of Cuban political prisoners, was sentenced earlier this month to 2 years in prison, according to Payo Libre.
Talavera, a member of the Marta Abreu Feminist Movement, was convicted of the supposed crimes of "attacking" and "disrespect." She is currently being held at the Belloté women's prison.
