Unemployed threatened with prison

HAVANA, Cuba - October 17 (Ahmed Rodríguez Albacia, Jovenes sin Censura / www.cubanet.org) - Cuban dissident Yuniel Columbié said police have threatened to throw him in prison for not having a steady job and for visiting the home of his uncle Julio, a delegate to the Cuban Foundation for Human Rights.

Columbié said police summoned him October 3 to the police unit in Primero de Enero municipality in Ciego de Ávila province. There the sector chief, a man who said his name is Yoel, interrogated him, and held him for three hours. While at the station, police fingerprinted him and issued him a writ of warning, Columbié said.
