Sugar mill worker fired because he's a dissident

MATANZAS, Cuba, March 22 (Oscar Sánchez Madan / www.cubanet.org) - Juan
Francisco Sigler Amaya, a member of the board of directors of the
Alternative Option Independent Movement, says he was fired last week
from his job at the Cuba Libre sugar operation because of his political
views.

Sigler Amaya, 53, said mill manager Orlando Martínez Acosta on March 14
invoked law 1 of 2001 under which he was fired because he met in his
home with people opposed to the "ideological principles" of the revolution.

"This is evidentially political act, planned by State Security and
carried out by its unconditional collaborators," Sigler Amaya said.
