A Cuban woman offered a reward of $100 on Wednesday for the return of her handbag, which was stolen while she attended the Virgen del Camino fair in Havana.
Daleidys Díaz explained on Facebook that her friend, who was a victim of the robbery, had her mobile phone and personal documents in her bag, including both her and her son's identity cards.
What troubles the affected individual the most is the loss of her son's photos stored on the phone, which is why she is appealing to the goodwill of anyone who has the device to return it.
According to the post, anyone with information or who has had the bag stolen can contact her at the number 53 52930143.
In June, the Cuban government acknowledged the troubling increase in criminal violence on the island, which includes the use of firearms.
Colonel Eddy Sierra Arias, head of the General Directorate of the Revolutionary National Police, stated on the program Mesa Redonda that the deterioration of certain ethical values is contributing to the rise in criminal activity in the country.
"The main manifestations, although not the only ones, are acts against property, home burglaries, incidents related to the theft of cell phones, motorcycles, and personal belongings in general of the affected population," Sierra Arias explained.
In July, Cuban leader Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez even confirmed the rise in violence, crime, and drug addiction in the country, within the context of what he referred to as an "adverse socioeconomic scenario."
During the closing speech of the third session of the National Assembly in its tenth legislature, the leader emphasized that the ongoing efforts of the Ministry of the Interior and the judicial authorities, in close connection with the people, have made it possible to uncover, prevent, and tackle numerous criminal patterns and trends in recent years.
