Peasant fined after his three head of cattle
are stolen
HAVANA, August 20 (Richard Roselló
/ www.cubanet.org) - Arecelio Medero will
have to pay a fine of 1500 pesos for "not
caring for his animals" after thieves
stole two oxen and a heifer from his home
in Batabanó August 16.
Medero lost two head a few months ago and
also had to pay a 500-peso per head fine
then. Now he has no cattle left.
Sources close to Medero said the thieves
went into the yard, poisoned his dog and
walked the cattle to the road, where they
possibly loaded them onto a truck.
This year, 15 head of cattle have been
stolen in Batabanó; last year, more
than 600 were stolen.
