Housing authority destroys home of homeless
woman and daughter
CIEGO DE ÁVILA, Cuba - 31 May (Roberto
Pérez, Agencia Patria / www.cubanet.org)
- When Oralia Carcasés failed to
obtain a building permit before the construction
material for her new home started to deteriorate,
she decided to build the house without one.
Last week a brigade from the Housing Institute
in the municipality of Rafael Freyre, in
Holguín province, destroyed the house,
over the protests of the owner and her neighbors.
Independent journalist Liannys Meriño
Aguilera said the building permit was held
up by bureaucratic red tape and that Carcasés
decided she could wait no longer. She and
her young daughter had been living in a
lean-to.
