Dear Mr. President,

On 15 July 2021, Loreto Hernández García was arrested by police forces, after he had peacefully participated in a demonstration critical of the government. In February 2022, a court in the city of Santa Clara sentenced him to seven years in prison for "disrupting public order" and "disrespect". In the unfair trial, he, his wife, Donaida Pérez Paseiro, and 14 other protesters were found guilty.

Loreto Hernández García suffers from diabetes, high blood pressure and other health problems that cannot be treated in prison. Due to his poor health, he hopes to be released on parole. However, the authorities have informed him that he will only be released if his wife, who was released from prison on January 15, 2025, stops her activism.

As member / sympathizer of Amnesty International, I hereby urge you to immediately and unconditionally release all people who are unlawfully detained solely for having exercised their human rights. These include Loreto Hernández García, Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, Maykel Castillo Pérez (Osorbo), Roberto Pérez Fonseca and Saylí Navarro.

Sincerely		

	Cc:
