#4  uba Net also has: Thieves dressed as policemen carry out robberies in Cuba

HOLGUIN, Cuba, January 13 - A group of thieves dressed as policemen has been carrying out home robberies in the municipality of Antilla in Holguín province.

During the past three weeks, at least five homes have been targeted while the residents were present and five television sets, among other items, taken. One of the victims was Blas Evora Martínez, a former political prisoner, who was roused at 4 a.m. on January 7 by two men posing as police officers.

"So far, neither of the two very familiar looking the police officers assigned have not apprehended anyone," said Roberto Sardiñas Sánchez, delegate of the dissident pro Human Rights Party in Holguín province.
