This Thursday's call
This Sunday's phone call comes after Luis Robles learned this Thursday in prison that the United Nations has asked Cuba for explanations for his imprisonment.
His anger was monumental when he learned that Havana has justified the violation of his legitimate right to freedom of expression and demonstration by justifying that he is "a common criminal."
His family informed him that the Cuban Government assured the UN that it "feels sorry that alleged criminals hide behind human rights."
Furthermore, Cuba has alerted the United Nations that he has been detained four times; who supposedly has bad behavior in society and who had voluntarily gone on a hunger strike.

That is a lack of respect. What are they looking for? For me to go on strike again to see where this is going to go. do it with everyone who demonstrates against the Government. My brother, what I did, I did it because I felt sorry and not because no one incited me," said Robles, in a second audio to which he has had access.CyberCuba.
