Undercover agent Manuel David Orrio reappears
on Internet
HAVANA, April 17 (Luis Cino/www.cubanet.org)
- Manuel David Orrio, whose testimony in
2003 helped lead to prison terms of up to
28 years for fellow independent journalists,
has been seen in public and his writings
now appear on a Web site.
Orrio, a state security agent who posed
as a journalist for 12 years, was seen by
an independent journalist at the wheel of
a car stopped at a traffic light. The two
exchanged looks.
His writings have appeared on www.insurgente.org,
a Web site that supports and defends the
Cuban government.
Orrio was the main witness in April of
2003 against 27 journalists who were among
75 dissidents arrested the previous month
and charged with crimes against the state.
