Hundreds of dissidents, students, artists, journalists, priests and even children have been arrested in Cuba following islandwide anti-government protests that erupted Sunday and their violent aftermath.
Many remain incommunicado, according to family members and international organizations denouncing the arrests.
“My mother just called me crying,” said Arnaldo Falcon, whose brother, Ariel Gonzalez Falcon, 21, has been detained since Sunday and is currently being held in a prison in El Cotorro, on the outskirts of Havana.
“My parents have been in that disgusting prison since first thing in the morning, and now they have been told that they will hold him for four more days. They don’t want to tell them why or give them his case number,” he said.
Ariel Falcon, who is going to medical school, first posted a video of a Sunday demonstration in the iconic Malecón in Havana that went viral.
A Spanish-language list that has been shared on social media by the Cuban independent journalism outlet El Toque and other organizations includes details of 383 people arrested during the protests and the following days. Some have already been released.

Hundreds of Americans are being detained after seeking mostly peaceful redress from their Representatives.
Cubans can care about unjustly locked up Cubans.
I care about the unjustly locked up Americans right now.
That's nothing...this country has detained protestors and trespassers for over 6 months!
Detained or disappeared?
In the U.S or Cuba?
Hi.
I could handle Occasional-Cortex better if she did her press conferences topless.

I’m afraid at this point, it would merely serve to illustrate the power of gravity.
Hundreds are still detained in this country.
They are still hunting them down.
Those are some teeth, aren’t they?
Like a mule on a thornbush.
Hundreds? When it gets like Tianamen I’ll pay attention. Biden is no inspiration to the wanna-be protestors so a few hundred is nothing. These protestors should pay more attention to the election calendar.
I would certainly pay more attention.
Maybe not to the audio, but to the visual.

repeating the prior post.
She could just pull her top over her face, to replace the bag that belongs there.
I was talking about the political prisoners in the USA.
Some of them have been in solitary confinement for more than 6 months for trespassing.
“Those are some teeth, aren’t they? Like a mule on a thornbush.”
I first heard it as “like a mule chewing briars” but YUP, indeed so. In any event, picket fence or not, an ear of corn dudna stand a chance with her around.
Hundreds of Cubans are still detained after anti-government protests, human-rights groups say. Hundreds of Americans are still detained after anti-Biden protests, no human-rights groups say
Having this scum in Congress causes our country to be destroyed beyond repair.
It’s always like this when democrats are in charge. They have their inbeds stuff the pot so they can identify the freedom fighters and lock them up. See Iran on 2009.
