insult
HAVANA, November 9 (Ernesto
Roque Cintero, UPECI / www.cubanet.org)
- The director of the independent library
in Herradura, Pinar del Río province,
Lázaro González, says he was
fined for refusing to allow his luggage
to be searched.
González's car was pulled over on
the National Highway November 1 and he was
ordered by police agents to open his suitcase.
When he refused, he said he was charged
and fined with insulting government officials.
"The agents searched my luggage against
my will and imposed an arbitrary fine,"
he said. "Such searches are illegal."
"All I had in the suitcase were dirty
clothes and medicine," he said.
