Cuba: Castro says commemorating the dead is terrorism

HAVANA, April 13 (Ernesto Roque Cintero / www.cubanet.org) - Agents of the Department of State Security told a group of dissidents planning a quiet ceremony for April 11 in commemoration of three youths executed by the government last year that the ceremony would be considered a "terrorist act" and that participants would be punished accordingly.

On April 9, two uniformed officers were posted at the private home in the town of Regla, across the bay from Havana, where the ceremony was to have been held.

On the afternoon of the same day, police called one of the event's promoters, Pedro Pablo Valdés, to the Regla police station. Once there, a captain Eduardo and a major Osmani told Valdés that the activity would be considered a terrorist act, that all participants would suffer the consequences of attending, and that the owner of the home would be sent to a shelter.

Let's hope there'll be no acts of terrorism anywhere when the old dictator kicks the bucket.
