More than 100 booked for "dangerousness"
in eastern Cuba
HAVANA, Cuba, February 2 (www.cubanet.org)
- More than 100 people in two Pinar del
Río municipalities were booked for
"dangerousness" between January
27 and 28.
Sixty-eight whom the government considers
"potential delinquents" were called
into the police station in San Cristóbal
January 27, photographed, fingerprinted,
booked, and warned about their "proclivity
to criminal activities."
One government opponent who was among those
called in, Lázaro Lemus, described
the meeting attended by at least 18 police
officers, two prosecutors, and one other
man in plain clothes whom Lemus made out
to be from the Department of State Security.
Lemus said some of those booked are employed
and some are not.
Lemus said he asked why they had been called
in, and that one officer's response was:
"We know why we called you in."
In the adjoining municipality of Candelaria,
more than 40 people were similarly called
in the next day, according to Alberto Hernández,
also a government opponent.
