They have this notation at the link, the
minor is not a JW, the family is.
Thanks - I was using the headline as provided in the article as the basis
One of the public comments - which are only visible if you actually 'click' to view them - right at the bottom of the web page says (google translate)
Note Clarification on the beating of the minor in Morón. Luis Lemagne Milian, only 15 years old is NOT JEHOVAH'S WITNESS, his parents and other relatives if they belong to that religion. It was a writing error in the headline of the news. Nevertheless the weight of the chronicle lies in the brutality of the police.
JWs always claim persecution because thier JWs . The police probably beat him for a veritably of other reasons.

As you stated the comment was hidden.
I kind of wondered when I saw that at age 15 he went by himself to the police station to ask about his uncle, as a JW you just don't do that in Cuba. Also the birthday.
The police probably beat him for a veritably of other reasons - so that's ok, then?
I hope that the police used proportionate force here. If not, then I hope the police officers are suitably disciplined/punished.
So we're trusting the media this week are we darkspliv? Just checking because normally they're telling apostate\Satan driven lies about gods holy people. This time its all true though lol. Seriously alhough the facts of this case are difficult to make sense of, I hope things work out for the poor lad.
In never said it was ok for the cops to beat him up!! But just that JWs believe everything that's bad that happens to them is because thier being persecuted as JWs

Sorry I don't understand, what do you mean? That I don't trust the media reports, or that you don't trust the media reports I've posted over the last week?... which ones?
like the major report on sex abuse in the JW's published in Switzerland - and the three major news articles dealing with it?
Jehovah's Witnesses are silent
