Man fined for attempted sale

CIEGO DE AVILA, November 16 (Emilio Martín Morales, FCDH) – A man was fined 1,500 pesos by an inspector in an apparent incident of entrapment in the city of Morón.

The man, Juan Méndez Peña, a resident of Camagüey, was carrying two wooden carvings as he walked down the street when someone unknown to him approached him and asked him whether he was selling the wood figures. Méndez said he would for 25 dollars. At this point the stranger identified himself as an inspector, and took Méndez to a police station and fined him.
