The Cuban activist Berta Soler, leader of the Ladies in White, denounced that the Cuban Telecommunications Company (ETECSA) cuts off his internet service in collusion with State Security.

"ETECSA, in complicity with the Department of State Security (DSE), has been cutting off my mobile data Internet service for around 15 days almost all the time," Soler said on Facebook.

He explained that the service was restored after midnight, but since January 5 there is no internet. "Until now it has been more than 30 hours," he said in his complaint online.

The activist explained to her followers that she went to make a formal complaint at the ETECSA office in Alamar this Friday and left the place without any results. In order to make his publications he had to find a Wi-Fi service.

Soler lives under a continuous siege from State Security, which did not even allow him to attend the first mass of the year in the Cathedral of Havana this week.

On Friday the Lady in White said that refuses to pay fines that the police have imposed on him in 2022 for demonstrating peacefully in Cuba to demand the freedom of political prisoners.

An official from the Habana del Este municipality appeared at his home to negotiate payment of the sanctions. "My response was, I will not pay any fine for political reasons imposed and ordered by State Security," said the opponent.

The requirement to pay the fine indicates that to date Soler has 21 pending fines, but the amount of the activist's debt was not specified. The Lady in White has been threatened by State Security that they will open a file against her and take her to prison if she does not pay the sanctions imposed.
