Cuba’s communist regime is planning to force political prisoner Lisdany Rodríguez Isaac, who is reportedly currently seven weeks pregnant, to kill her unborn child, the human rights organization Prisoners Defenders denounced on Tuesday evening.
Rodríguez Isaac is a 25-year-old Cuban citizen currently serving an eight-year prison sentence at the Guamajal Prison in Santa Clara for having participated in the historic July 2021 wave of anti-communist protests. The Castro regime charged her with public disorder, “disobedience,” and assault for her peaceful display calling for an end to over six decades of communist rule in Cuba.
Rodríguez Isaac is a practitioner of a uniquely Cuban syncretic religion known as santería, Lucumí, or the Yoruba religion. She is one of three triplets. One of her two other sisters, Lisdiany Rodríguez Isaac, is also a political prisoner. The imprisoned siblings are members of the Free Yorubas, an independent group of santería practitioners that exists as an alternative to the regime-controlled Yoruba Cultural Association of Cuba.
Prisoners Defenders, a Spain-based human rights NGO, denounced the situation of the pregnant political prisoner, sharing a video published on social media.
The video shows an audio recording of Rodríguez Isaac’s mother, Barbarita Isaac Rojas, in which she states that she received a call from her daughter Lisdiany, who informed her that Lisdany is almost seven weeks pregnant. The mother denounced the Castro regime for not providing her imprisoned daughter with food or medicine and threatening her with a forced abortion.
