Ghost of Fidel: We do not need you!

Laritza Diversent

Lawyer and blogger Laritza Diversent, pro-democracy activist Antonio Rodiles and eight other democracy advocates were jailed Wednesday in Cuba, human rights workers said.
Blogger Yoani Sanchez and others were arrested Thursday after they gathered outside a police station where the activists were detained.

Writer and activist Orlando Luis Pardo Lazo complained that the foreign press in Cuba was ignoring the incident. He tweeted:

From this wi-fi corner of Cuba, I rebuke the international press that is shamelessly accredited in Cuba (and their correspondents with huge salaries in euros). I tell you now as if I were the ghost of Fidel: Get out at once, we do not want you, we do not need you!
