dc.description.abstractThe head of the Antigua Christian Council, Archbishop Orland Lindsay condemns the tear gassing of the 200 protestors outside parliament as unnecessary and in violation of human rights. He also hopes it will not detract attention from the allegations of financial impropriety against Prime Minister V. C. Bird. Also in Antigua, opposition leader of the Antigua Caribbean Liberation Movement (ACLM), Tim Hector plans to publicize documents to CARICOM leaders in support of his charge against the Prime Minister for misuse of public funds. Russia backs up its decision to join with other members of the UN Human Rights Commission in condemnation of Cuba’s human rights violations by hosting a reception for several Cuban dissidents. The Cuban official newspaper, Western News Agency reports that the Head of the Russian Delegation to the UN Human Rights Commission did not have the approval of all Russian diplomats in hosting the reception. Cuba is offended by Russian turn around but has withheld criticism of President Boris Yeltsin and still intends to do business with Russia. Due to a spate of shootings and a direct attack on police headquarters in the British Virgin Islands, Governor Peter Penfold is enlisting the help of law enforcement specialists along with existing and enhanced resources to combat the problem. Expectancy runs high as West Indies takes on South Africa in its next World Cup cricket game. Captain, Richie Richardson has to bring his leadership skills to bear on securing a victory against a nation that has been out of competition for the past 22 years. Finally, South Africa will return to the cricket test arena in a tour to participate in a ‘one off’ test as well as 3 international ‘one day’ cricket games against the West Indies.en_US
