FROM CUBA Residents of building in Vedado district protest blackouts 3ix6y

HAVANA, July 15 (Jos Antonio Fornaris, Cuba Verdad / cubanet.sergipeconectado.com) - Three times during the past week bottles and glass objects were thrown from a building housing employees of the Cuban Institute of Radio and Television in an apparent protest against power blackouts.

One resident of an apartment in the building said that after the first incident the Committee for the Defense of the Revolution called at a meeting at which residents were urged to have a greater revolutionary conscience.

Vigilance in the building was also increased, but two other incidents followed.

The building, built by employees next to the Hotel Riviera in the Vedado district, was opened in 1978. It contains 152 two- and three-bedroom apartments.
