HAVANA (Reuters) - The Catholic Church said a Spanish priest was found
dead in Cuba on Monday in the second suspected murder of a clergyman on
the communist-run Caribbean island in five months.
The Church said in a statement the body of Father Mariano Arroyo Merino
was found in a room of the parish where he worked in the Havana Bay
neighborhood of Regla.
"The first reports indicate that the priest, of Spanish origin, was
murdered," the statement said without giving details.
In February, another Spanish priest, Eduardo de la Fuente Serrano, 61,
was found dead by the side of a road west of the capital. News reports
said he had been stabbed to death.
There was nothing so far to indicate the two cases were related.
