Two more prisoner releases

Cuba’s Catholic church announced this morning that two more prisoners are to be released – one “who wishes to remain in Cuba” and another who has “expressed a wish to go to the United States.” They are the second and third of the eleven political prisoners jailed in 2003 who refused offers to go to Spain (see full list at Uncommon Sense). The first, Arnaldo Ramos Lauzurique, was freed last November 14 and remains in Cuba.
