A transgender woman with HIV who participated in an anti-government protest in Cuba on July 11, 2021, remains in prison two years later.

Authorities arrested Brenda Díaz in Güira de Melena in Artemisa province. The Güira de Melena protest was one of dozens against the Cuban government that took place across the country July 11, 2021.

Díaz is among the hundreds of people who were arrested during the demonstrations. A Havana court last year sentenced García to 14 years in prison.
