In castro's paradise... (Updated)
A guy can't even drown a few worms...
SANTA CLARA, January 21 (Guillermo Fariñas, Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org) - A physician who was vacationing at a recreational fishing resort was beat by the local police chief who thought the man was a commercial fisherman.Dr. Ismely Iglesias was fishing at the Manajanabo, Santa Clara fishing club January 18, when a man who turned out to be the sector's chief of police, charged him, beat him, and handcuffed him. Iglesias' assailant, who only gave his name as Lester, said he assumed the Dr. was a fishing illegally.
Later, Lester set Dr. Iglesias free, threatening to charge him with disobedience.
Dr. Iglesias said he had a dislocated ankle for which he would have to observe 10-days' rest.
I guess it's a good thing he has free universal healthcare.
Update: My buddy homebru hits the nail on the head with this from the comments section:
Drowning gusanos is apparently reserved for fidel.

Assume first, beat later. But you must first 'assume.'
Tells us all we need to know.

Commercial fisherman? It's a beating offense.
I guess they're still upset about Donato.
