Dissident leader detained by police
PINAR DEL RIO, Cuba,
November 23 (Rafael Ferro Salas, Abdala
Press / www.cubanet.org) - Mario Izquierdo
Sotolongo, a candidate for the presidency
of the Máximo Gómez Báez
National Civic Movement, was detained by
police this week.
Eliosber Garriga of the Racial Integration
Movement said that Izquierdo's detention
was probably a result of his candidacy in
the human rights organization.
"The members of Máximo Gómez
Báez had planned a meeting for the
election and it's to be supposed that this
information 'filtered' out and the political
police detained Mario to frustrate the event,"
said Garriga.
Garriga was detained by Ramón Beune
of the political police.
