Time for the Leaders to Act
Alan, who was jailed in Villa Marista prison is a detention centre. He was suspected for working in American Intelligence services. Wiki Leaks, before few days released some cables that showed the arrest came amid and creating tension between the government of America and Cuba.
It's the duty of the government to save its innocent citizen. He already spends 15 months in the worst detention centre and had not spoke with his family except two times in phone.
Cuban government informed that Alan delivered laptops and satellite phones to dissidents, but people were feeling there is nothing wrong in doing that, because they have been selling around the world freely and are not meant the person who is selling is spying. Only some Cubans blamed him. When he worked in other countries, he was not accused as a spy or a member of CIA.
Clearly there are some political reasons behind the arrest of Alan. Some times government have to sacrifice more even for few innocent lives, like Israel agree to release 1027 prisoners for a single 25-year-old soldier Gilad Shalit. Some time great sacrifice has to done.
Since it's the duty of the government to save its innocent citizens, I hope Obama administration will soon take a step to save him, even paying huge price.
