Jawa Report first reported the rumor circulating in Spanish language papers that Cuban Leader Fidel Castro was dead, but later it turns out a hoax. Based on the update of that report, the remor was derived from an unorthodox rendering by Google's Language Tools on an Argentina's paper. Excerpts provided by Jawa Report from a very rough Google translation on Argentinian Indymedia:
The dictator Fidel Castro dies in Havana.It is almost sure that this is a serious joke because of an online service. Is it possilbe that Google would be boycotted by Cuba? At least now still unknown.May 29th, 10:22 P.M.
This afternoon, the Cuban dictator Fidel Castro died in his residence of the Laguito longevo .
According to sources officials the Cuban dictator I have not been castrating for some days was in delicate state of health after to have undergone a sudden infarct.
.....
Official sources of the government, the dictator's brother Raul Castro, and stops leaders of the regime have not even wanted to notify to the Cuban town, awaiting an international reaction.
