The activist asked if anything had happened, and the police state's security officers answered that the reason for his detention was going to be communicated at the police station. When they got there, the PNR officers told him that he was being detained becuase he was allegedly identified as the author of a series of anti-governmental signs recently appeared written in several areas of the city and that they had information that he was the responsible for those writings. For this reason, the activist was going to be prosecuted before a court for enemy propaganda.
