Miró's own son was Castro's prisoner. Varona's son, two brothers and one nephew were missing. So was Council Member Antonio Maceo's son.

But a few weeks ago, he circulated a grim private letter to all of Poland's 15.000 priests, warning them to "prepare for the worst . . . even jail or physical harm." Empty Streets.
