The victim was at the door of his house playing domino with some friends of his. He told his friends that since August 10 (the death of Fidel), on television, there were talking only about Fidel, as if there was something to regret. Then, at 7.00 pm, two policemen known as Alejandro and Fernando knocked on the door and they pushed the victim immediately and handcuffed him, and without any reason they took him to the First Police Unit. When asked about the reasons for the arrest, he was told that it was because of his links with counterrevolutionary groups. They imposed him a warning letter, which he did not sign. He was released after 4 hours.
