FROM
CUBA
Resident of the U.S. jailed for giving his
travel documents to his brother
HAVANA, Cuba, June 9 (Roberto Santana
Rodríguez / www.cubanet.org) - Bernardo
Heredia Pérez, a 42-year-old Cuban
resident of the United Status, is being
held in jail because he gave his travel
documents to his younger brother, who used
them to fly out of Cuba.
It is not known where Heredia Pérez
lived in the United States nor what type
of passport he was using.
Heredia Pérez told visitors to the
prison where he's being held that he's in
limbo because the Cuban authorities say
he can't leave without travel documents.
He has lived in the United States since
1994.
"I don't regret helping my brother
obtain his freedom," Heredia Pérez
said. "The bad part is the situation
in which I find myself. In any other country
I'd be fined or deported."
His brother left Cuba in March.
