Reports: Castroite mob attack Reina Luisa Tamayo

Reina_Luisa_Tamayo Reina Luisa Tamayo

Cuban bloggers Yoani Sanchez and Luis Felipe Rojas report via Twitter, here and here, that Castroite mobs today attacked Reina Luisa Tamayo and supporters as they walked from the Catholic church in Banes, in eastern Cuba, to the grave site of her murdered son, Orlando Zapata Tamayo. Tamayo and others have reportedly been taken into police custody.

Sanchez also reported that she had been told by his wife that police had gone to Rojas' home in Holguín and arrested him, presumably to stop his reporting.

How and why this old woman can inspire such fear and hatred on the part of the regime, escapes me.

Radio Martí has more.
