    Cuba detains 70 Ladies in White

    Members of dissident group Ladies in White take part in their weekly march in front of Santa Rita church in Havana, Cuba, yesterday.

The detentions come just over a week ahead of a visit by Pope Benedict XVI, who is likely to bring up the issue of religious, political and human rights during his tour.
