Twelve civilian workers fired from armed forces farm

HAVANA, November 29 (Víctor M. Domínguez, Lux Info Press / www.cubanet.org) - Twelve civilians working at a Revolutionary Armed Forces Farm south of Havana were fired under suspicion of trying to steal 15 sacks of feed, according to Virgilio Marantes, a local resident.

The 12 men tended pigs at the Aleida Fernández farm, near Güines. The 15 sacks of feed were found just outside the fence.

"We all paid, guilty and not guilty, just because the sacks were found behind the pig pens," said one of the fired workers.

Marantes said the chief of police for the sector, first lieutenant Justo Luis, interrogated the 12 men and closed the case for lack of proof, leaving the matter to the discretion of the farm administration, who chose to fire the workers.
