Imprisoned

News of a Cuban political prisoner, Dr. Oscar Bisket

The reader who passed this link along addd this to the brief story:

However, there is much more to this story than the fact that he has courageously opposed the regime throughout his life.  Three years ago, I escorted his wife (Elsa Morejon) around Capitol Hill in an effort to raise awareness in Washington of the ongoing persecution of those who dare to demand freedom.  But during a meeting with sympathetic members of Congress, Morejon revealed that one of the reasons her husband was sent to the gulag the first time was that he refused to perform abortions for the teenage girls Castro uses as part of the sex-tourism industry in Cuba.  Biscet is a devout Catholic, and recognized by Amnesty International as a Prisoner of Conscience.  He should be the Mandela of our day, but sadly few people outside of the Cuban American community have ever heard of him.  Now more than ever an international outcry is needed to let the world know of Biscet's struggle.  At the very least, this man needs our prayers.
