Cuban pacifist dissident threatened with job loss

HOLGUIN, Cuba, January 13 (www.cubanet.org) - Isidoro Batista Pupo, activist in the Christian Liberation Movement, was recently threatened with the loss of his government job on the grounds he was a counter-revolutionary and wasn't paying union dues.

Luis Manuel Hernández, an instructor in the Communist Party, called a meeting of party officials and the government labor union at the Health Department where Batista Pupo works to discuss his case and determine his firing.

However, co-workers said that Batista Pupo was a good worker, although not a member of the labor union.

No decision was made at the meeting, but Hernández warned Batista Pupo that he faced sanctions if he continued anti-government activities.
