BREAKING: Antúnez in Hospital

Breaking news on dissident Jorge Luis Garcia Perez Antunez:

FROM CUBA Former Cuban prisoner of conscience Antunez gravely ill in a hospital in Havana.

HAVANA, CUBA - February 8th ( Martha Beatriz Roque Cabello/www.plantados.org)- Former Cuban prisoner of conscience Jorge Luis Garcia Perez Antunez suffered a heart attack early this morning and was taken urgently to the National Hospital in Alta Habana, in the Havana municipality where he was admitted in the intensive care unit.
We send this alert to the entire world because we fear for Antunez' life.

The island's communist regime denies Antunez his right to travel to another country where he can be properly treated without any political pressures, so that afterwards he can return to Cuba.

Reported over the telephone from Havana to "Plantados" until Liberty and Democracy in Cuba by Martha Beatriz Roque Cabello and sent to the Information Bridge Cuba Miami (www.puenteinfocubamiami.org) for distribution. Translation: Puente Informativo Cuba Miami.

This is raul's deadly reform in action. No firing squad necessary, and if he dies, the cause of death is murder, not heart attack. Pray for him and his family.
