Pavel was in Neptuno y Galeano Street in Havana, when two police officers came to him and asked for his ID. When they saw that Pavel is from the Eastern part of Cuba and not from Havana, they detained him and drove him at first to the police station in Zanja, then to station in San Miguel and finally he was deported to his province. At the station known as Parque 24, he was told by Major Charon, a Deputy Chief of the station, that he was in Havana illegally and gave him an official warning. Pavel was threatened that if he came back to Havana, he would be prosecuted for disobedience.
