Cuban police have detained about 30 people as they marched in Havana in a protest led by the mother of a political prisoner who died in a hunger strike.
The so-called "Ladies in White" were heckled by hundreds of government supporters as they marched through Havana with the mother of Orlando Zapata, who died in a prison hunger strike on February 23.
Female police officers forced the dissidents into two buses, which drove off to an unknown location.
