Tilapia – Worth going to jail? PLACETAS, Cuba, September 1
Police arrested a young man who was selling tilapia fillets out of his bicycle in Placetas Sunday morning and local residents loudly protested the lost possibility of buying the fish.
The policeman making the arrest saw the man at an intersection and ordered him to walk to the police station while he followed in his car.
Residents watching the parade protested loudly. One woman brought her hands to her head and said: "Now, what am I going to feed my children and my mother? We are the ones that get stuck, because they (meaning the government) don't sell fish through the rationing system."
A young woman said: "Now they'll confiscate the tilapia and keep it for themselves."
