Three Cuban dissidents arrested Aug. 16 during a protest on the steps of the University of Havana have been transferred to different prisons, according to a report posted at Misceláneas de Cuba.
The case of Michel Iroy Rodríguez Ruiz, Luís Enrique Labrador and Eduardo Pérez Flores — along with the recent arrests of five dissidents in eastern Cuba — is the most recent evidence that despite its release of some dozen members of the "Group of 75" prisoners, the Castro dictatorship has not changed.
Meanwhile, Rodríguez, Labrador and Pérez are increasingly in poor health because of hunger strikes they started after their arrests. They have been moved to some of the Castro gulag's worst hellholes, but so far no formal charges have been filed against them.

Before his transfer, Luís Enrique Labrador was beaten and seriously injured by police, according to a report from independent journalist Katia Sonia Martín Véliz, published by the Cuban Independence and Democracy Party.
