Independent journalist's wife fired
RANCHUELO, Cuba - February 13 (Félix Reyes Gutiérrez, Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org) - The wife of an independent journalist was fired from her job after being declared "politically unreliable."
Yolanda Álvarez, the wife of independent journalist Alejandro Tur, worked as an attendant in the bathrooms of "El Rápido" shopping center in Cienfuegos. The shopping center is owned and operated by the government under its corporate entity CIMEX.
According to Álvarez, the center's manager, a woman she only identified as Majela, told her that an investigation had revealed that she did not belong to any of the government's "mass organizations" and that her husband is a "well-known counter revolutionary.
Her husband said the whole episode was "nothing more than a maneuver by State Security to try to stop my activities in journalism."
