UNPACU activist detained when publicly supporting José Daniel Ferrer



Enrique Mustelier Sosa was detained in front of his house in the Center-Eastern part of the city of Guantánamo. The reason was that Enrique was publicly expressing himself in favour of release of José Daniel Ferrer, founder of the Cuban Patriotic Union (UNPACU) and all the political prisoners. He was then taken to the police unit known as Parque 24. There, Captain Wilson, who is the deputy chief at that unit, threatened him with imprisonment if he continued with his political activities. He was released on the next day at about 3 pm and fined 400 pesos in CUP.
