Ten Prisoners Prefer to Stay in Cuba

HAVANA TIMES, Sept. 9 — At least 10 of the political prisoners out of the odd 20 still in prison refuse to accept traveling to Spain because they wish to remain in the island or want to go to the United States, Elizardo Sánchez, president of the opposition’s Cuban Commission of Human Rights and National Reconciliation, affirmed.  That group forms part of the 52 dissidents included in the agreement between the Catholic Church, Madrid and the Cuban government, reported IPS.
