Local
government officials constitute "prophylactic"
group against dissidents in Cuba
HHAVANA, August 6 (www.cubanet.org) - Three
local government officials in the town of Güines,
south of Havana, have constituted themselves into
a group they call "Support prophylactic group
against government opponents."
The three are the local delegate of the Popular
Power in nearby Catalina, the local coordinator
of the Committees for the Defense of the Revolution,
and the area chief of police.
On July 30, they called Virgilio Marantes to
the shoe factory in Güines, and informed
him that they could open a process for "dangerousness"
against him that could send him to prison for
four years.
They also told him the Revolution is benevolent,
and that they would give him time to find a job
and stop his activities directed against the Cuban
government.
Marantes is an ex political prisoner who has
been fined on at least five separate occasions
and has suffered several instances of harassment
by government adherents.
