They were never implemented, and meanwhile back on the island prison Human Rights abuses continue to escalate, from Cubanet:
-
Three dissidents lost their government jobs for participation in a protest.
-
Seventeen religious pilgrims were prevented from boarding a ferry and threatened.
-
Two aspiring journalists were detained by police.
-
Independent librarians were threatened with arrest and prison by state security.
-
Pedicab driver sentenced to 22 months in jail for working without a license.
-
Police searches and checks increase in Pinar del Río.
-
Ex-government official harassed and threatened.
