A human rights organisation in Cuba is demanding information on the whereabouts of dissident artist Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, who was arrested in 2021 after protesting the government.
State Security agents removed him from Guanajay Prison on Tuesday 7 July. He was reportedly taken to an undisclosed location and his whereabouts remain unknown.
Cubalex, the organisation operating from outside Cuba which legally advises dissidents and reports human rights violations, has filed a habeas corpus petition to ensure that the artist is not being illegally deprived of his liberty.
