National police stage roundup in Matanzas
province
MATANZAS, Cuba, February 9 (Oscar Sánchez
Madan / www.cubanet.org) - The national
police staged a series of raids last week
in the Matanzas town of Pedro Betancourt,
making arrests and seizing goods used in
private businesses, but which the government
calls illicit.
Dissident Ulises Sigler González
said during the evening of February 1 a
dozen policemen in a cruiser and a motorcycle
with a sidecar showed up in the town. He
said they went to homes where a sewing machine
and shoe-repair equipment was seized.
Sigler González said two people
were arrested and later fined 200 pesos
- the equivalent of about a month's salary
- and later released.
