Eriberto Liranza Romero
Cubans who choose to publicly oppose the Castro dictatorship face tremendous risks to what little safety they enjoy. For instance, on any day, they could have a morning as certainly frightening as the one democracy activist Eriberto Liranza Romero had on Tuesday.
Liranza, president of the Cuban Youth Movement for Democracy, had just left his home Tuesday morning and was on his way to a location where he could access the Internet, when he was stopped by a political police officer.
"In a threatening tone, he told me they would put me in prison if I continued reporting news about youth, and a youth who had died in prison," Liranza said.
Liranza said the thug also threatened to disrupt all MCJD activities.
In response, Liranza said he would hold the Castro dictatorship for anything that might happen to him or other activists.
