On Wednesday, the Supreme Court of the dictatorship of Cuba condemned 127 people for “violently subverting the constitutional order” due to the anti-government protests of July 11 on the island, resulting in sentences of between 4 and 30 years in prison.
“The Court has notified the sentences, in which it has considered proven and demonstrated that on July 11, 2021, in the Esquina de Toyo, municipality of Diez de Octubre, obeying instructions given by people from both Cuba and abroad, the accused, tried to subvert the constitutional order violently,” he said informed by the Supreme Court of the dictatorship of Cuba in a press release for the trial held between 14 December and 3 February.
According to the statement, these proceedings were followed against 129 citizens, “accused of committing and causing serious riots and vandalism, with the aim of destabilizing public order, collective security and citizen tranquility.”
Thus, the Court has assured that “these events were deliberately organized in the midst of the complex situation that the country was going through, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, in particular in the province of Havana”.
Those sentenced have been sentenced to between 4 and 30 years in prison depending on “the degree of participation”, as reported by the text of the regime, without reference to the ages of the courts.
In addition, the dictatorship has ordered, as “civil liability of the accused, the obligation to compensate persons who were injured as a result of the acts committed and to repair the damage caused to the entities”.
The US Embassy has reacted to the trials against the protesters and said that “the Cuban regime has sent a message today saying that they protect human rights while also sentencing dozens of 11J protesters to sentences of between 30 and 4 years for expressing their freedom of expression”, as it posted on their profile official Twitter.
