Cuban
dissident called a "threat to national security"
HAVANA, Cuba, August 25 (www.cubanet.org) - A
lieutenant with the Department of State Security
labelled a dissident here as a "threat to
national security."
León Padrón said he had been told
to report on August 19 to a lieutenant Eric at
the police station on Zapata and C Streets, but
that several officers there said they had no idea
who Eric might be. They told him to go home and
wait for another summons, said Padrón.
At around noon, a State Security who identified
himself as Eric arrived at Padrón's home
and confiscated his I. D. card, telling him he
would have to retrieve it that evening at the
police station.
Padrón said that during their conversation,
the officer told him: "You are a threat to
national security; because of you and others like
you the country could be bombed. What would you
do if one of those bombs fell on the school your
niece attends? If you continue with your activities,
we will try you under Law 88."
Padrón said the man concluded saying:
"You are my enemy."
