Holguín. (Lagrimasdecuba.blogspot.com) - This Saturday, March 12th, the second-in-command of the State Security's anti-crime unit, who calls himself Evelio, along with another agent of the Castro regime's G2 intelligence service, arrested me at my home at 8:26 a.m. and took me to the Criminal Processing Unit in Pedernales. They claim I am inciting a popular uprising in Holguín, and that I shouldn't deny it, since I confirm it myself with my social media posts, where I incite the people to boycott and resist. It's as if it were easy to eradicate the terror they have instilled in the population, where practically 98 percent of them are terrified if you put a camera in front of them for an interview or to ask their opinion on any topic. Many barely dare to speak to me for fear of being repressed. This is the terror they have sown in the minds of the people for 63 long and tortuous years. Dictatorship. In Holguín, a self-employed worker won't even let you take a picture of him because they say they'll be eaten alive afterward, especially after the glorious July 11th of last year. What is the Castro regime's G2 really trying to achieve with this whole charade? What are they plotting with these arrests, full of threats against my family and even against my life and freedom?

There is a reality: if they want to attack and imprison any of my children, there is nothing I can do to prevent it; if they want to take my life or freedom with the intention of silencing me, there is nothing I can do to prevent it, because silence, cowardice, shamelessness, and inaction are not part of my personality.

I was released at 11:42 a.m. with another warning letter. Thank you to all the worthy brothers who showed their solidarity; a fraternal and cordial hug to all.
