Lady in White prevented from traveling to Nicaragua and detained for more than 48 hours

Eralidis Frómeta Polanco is a member of the Ladies in White and a human rights defender. On 8 November, she was about to travel to Nicaragua, where, with money borrowed from her relatives, wanted to buy some goods and resell it in Cuba. However, the State Security prevented her from traveling since her status had been "regulated". As a reaction, Eralidis together with her husband started to peacefully protest in order to be refunded for the flight ticket. After that, they were both detained and imprisoned in the prison cells of the National Revolutionary Police (PNR) in Santiago de la Vegas for more than 48 hours, being accused of public disorder, disrupting the airport security and not having a license for transporting the posters she was carrying.
