Independent journalist warned not to write about Cuba's military

HAVANA, June 11 (Roberto de Jesús Guerra, Hablemos Press /
www.cubanet.org) - State Security agents warned independent journalist
José Carlos Aguilera not to write any more articles like the one about
five members of the Armed Forces recently killed in an accident at the
San Antonio de los Baños military base.

A lieutenant colonel named Roberto told the journalist that the news
item, posted by CubaNet, presented a negative image of the military.

Aguilera said in his defense that the Cuban media often publishes
articles about military accidents in other countries, including the
United States.
