Ailer left home in order to participate in the performance of Tania Bruguera, but suddenly there appeared three patrol cars, from which 9 individuals run out and put her violently inside the vehicle. She received several contusions on her legs and arms and, in the car, the police officer no. 29111 sat on her, almost suffocating her.
Without any registration in the police office, she was taken directly to the dungeon. She was interrogated by Kenia Maria Larrea and the official Romero, both from the Ministry of Interior. They were recording everything on a camera. They explained her she had been arrested for participating in a counterrevolutionary act and they would never allow independent civil society express themselves because they were a minority. Ailer asked twice for her arrest record, but Kenia replied that she was not a lawyer and she was not arrested, but retained.
Once again at the dungeon, she started to feel bad, so she was taken to the nearest polyclinic. They still were recording everything. The doctor asked him to make a certificate declaring the injuries during arrest, but Kenia Maria Larrea threatened him, then the doctor said no. Also, Ailer wanted the document with her results, but the officials kept it and they did not tell her anything.
In the police station they interrogated her again, especially about her relationship with Tania Bruguera and then she was allowed to go home. The following day, they informed her, her passport had been annulled.
