Dissident threatened with eviction from
his home
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Cuba, August 17 (Rosa

- Dissident Reinier Rodríguez Salgado,
a member of the Cuban Orthodox Renovation
Party, has been threatened with eviction
from his home, which the government says
he has been occupying illegally.
Rodríguez Salgado bought the house
for US$7,000 in 1998 from Guillermo R. Casero
Roselló, recognized at the time as
the legal owner of the property at Maceo
No. 129 in the district of Dos Caminos de
San Luis.
The Housing Department on August 12 told
Rodríguez Salgado that he did not
have ownership of the house because sales
between private citizens is illegal and
the property has passed to the hands of
the government.
The department said Casero Roselló
could recover the house if he repaid the
sales price to Rodríguez Salgado.
Rodríguez Rodríguez said
he is a self-employed barber and uses the
house for business purposes as well as a
family residence.
