Detained at the checkpoint in Caimanera



An activist Yojarne Alce Sarmiento was going to Guantánamo to attend Sunday Mass calling for release of political prisoners and freedom for Cuba. At the checkpoint in Caimanera, he was taken from the bus by police officials led by Majot Cantillo, a Chief Security Officer in Caimanera. He was told he could not go on. This is one of the cases which happens on day to day basis against activists in Cuba.
