Activist arrested and interrogated to prevent him from exercising his right to freedom of expression

The activist and president of the Juan Pablo II movement, Randy Caballero Suárez, was detained for almost an hour by National Revolutionary Police (PNR) officer Neuri Duran Pajan, along with first lieutenant Anael Hernández and informant Francisco Zaname, at the moment that the activist was preparing to enter the ETCSA telecommunications office. After being detained, the activist was taken to the police sector located in front of the municipal court, where he was interrogated and threatened by both officers with detention for more than 72 hours if he did not say what he was going to do in the place where he was detained. The activist says that the officers searched him in many ways looking for something like memories, or telephones, and that the officer, not finding what they supposed, asked him where the memory was where he supposedly carried the information he was going to send, but not finding anything, they released him. The activist was threatened with arrest if he was caught in the act of carrying out any anti-revolutionary activity anywhere in the city of Baracoa. According to the victim, PNR officials detained him on the orders of the State Security Department, specifically Major Alfredo Oliveros.
