An activist from Guantánamo attacked by an uknown aggressor and detained for two days



In the morning, 30 November 2020, an unknown person appeared in front of a house of an activist from the Cuban Patriotic Union (UNPACU), Enrique Mústelier Sosa, and started offending and threatening him: “You are a homosexual and you have a husband. Come down and you will see!” Then he threw several stones on his house. This was a provocation in order to make the activist leave his house and to beat him up. The aggressor then disappeared behind the corner and a patrol car arrived. Enrique was detained and accused of disturbance of order and attack against another person. He was then kept in detention for two days and only after that period released with a fine.
