Arrested in 1967. he was accused of having "worked against the security of the State." Amnesty International adopted Cuadra as a prisoner of conscience. and he was again arrested for continuing to write poetry considered subversive by Cuban authorities. He was finally released from prison in April 1982. Cuadras release is dubious at best. He is now a virtual hostage in Havana. for the Cuban Government refuses to grant him the required exit permit to emigrate from the country. I wonder if the Cuban people know of Cuadras detainment and of their governments reasons or. better stated. lack of reasons for not granting him an exit permit? It has been over 16 months since the Congress approved Radio Marti and recognized the Cuban peoples right to the truth.
