Activist from Caimanera interrogated and threatened at the police station



Yunieski was summoned to the police station in the municipality of Caimanera at 2:30 pm. When he arrived there, he was interrogated by Major Yoanny Lafita who is the head of the State Security (DSE) in Caimanera and Captain Edwin Jefferson, also known as Kevin, who is the DSE head in Guantánamo. The officials told him that he would be beaten up and put in jail if he kept having his illegal meetings and continued taking pictures of the project of the new constitution. For this reason, he was given an official warning which he refused to sign. He was released from the police station at about at 3 pm without any further consequences.
