Camagüey
eviction appears violent and unjustified
HAVANA, September 3 (www.cubanet.org) - Police
launched a Rambo-style assault on a private home,
climbing walls and dropping down from the roof,
just to evict its occupants August 26.
The owner of the home, Alexis Pérez, was
not home at the time of the assault; only his
son and mother-in-law were in when police broke
the access door to the patio.
Enrique López, a local human rights activist,
said Pérez does not lead an ostentatious
lifestyle. "This is the second eviction in
what appears to be a wave," said López.
"Pérez has legal title to the house,
so we don't understand why the family was evicted
and taken to alternative housing outside the city."
