Freedom Collection: Regis Iglesias Ramirez

at 8:57 PM Wednesday, October 24, 2012
As part of its Freedom Collection, The Bush Institute has released a video testimonial by former Cuban political prisoner, Regis Iglesias Ramirez.

Iglesias was a member of the Christian Liberation Movement (MCL).  The MCL was founded by the late Cuban dissident Oswaldo Paya, who died under mysterious circumstances in a car accident earlier this year.

In 2003, Regis Iglesias Ramirez was among 75 nonviolent dissidents and activists arrested by the Cuban regime in what became known as the Black Spring. He was sentenced to 18 years in prison for crimes against the state. He was released in 2010.
