Rumours have been rife these last few days that Fidel Castro would make his first appearance since his autistic younger brother Raul took over the reins of power temporarily last 31 july. However, as the Cuban Mayday began to move a few hours ago - neither of the Castro brothers were to be seen. Instead Salvador Valdés, secretary general of the Central Workers' union of Cuba led the march which Fidel has now missed twice.

United Press International distributed the story below. The link will presumably disappear when they realise what they've reported is a mish mash of real and imagined stories.
