The US has indicted Raul Castro because they think he did some bad things while he was in charge of Cuba.
Like a Playground Fight
Imagine you're on a playground, and your friend takes all the toys without asking. You feel upset and want to tell the teacher about it. That's kind of what happened here, the US is like the teacher who heard about the fight and wants to make things fair again.
Raul Castro was like the leader of Cuba for many years, and the US thinks he did some bad actions, such as taking over companies or not letting people be free. The US doesn't agree with how Cuba was run, so they're saying, "We think you did something wrong, we're going to take it up with a judge!"
A Letter from the Teacher
Indicting someone is like getting a letter from the teacher that says you might have to go in front of the class and explain what happened. It's not the end of the world, it's just the start of a bigger conversation.
The US hopes this will help make things better between them and Cuba, just like how talking with your friend can fix a playground fight!
