‘José Martí’ Airport worker arrested for luggage theft – 2024-02-21 16:30:40

The Cuban authorities arrested a worker at the ‘José Martí’ International Airport in Havana accused of stealing belongings from the luggage of travelers arriving in the Greater Antilles.

The fact was confirmed by the profile ‘El Cubano Fiel’, associated with the Ministry of the Interior (Minint) and used to carry out Castroist propaganda. According to this post, the subject was engaged in stealing the packages while he transported them to the warehouse.

This arrest would have been made after a complaint was received from a traveler, who claimed that a cell phone had been stolen from his luggage.

After that, the airport police “carried out a search at the house of a terminal driver who was dedicated to removing things from the packages he delivered to the warehouse,” although the account does not specify how the worker was already in the sights of the authorities.

The post also does not mention which airport terminals were the robberies occurred.

The search carried out at the worker’s house resulted in the discovery of “several things that were stolen, which ranged from printers, tool boxes, boxes and sealed packages, to fuel.”

Some Internet users questioned how it was possible that the subject could carry out these robberies without anyone noticing, especially with the alleged presence of several security cameras at the airport.

“Many people’s complaints were not unfounded, and I wonder: Is it just him? No security camera? “We have to continue going deeper,” said one of the users, emphasizing that several have been Similar complaints made by travelers arriving on the Island.

At the end of last year, a similar incident occurred at the same airport, where a tourist had a suitcase stolen.

The story was shared by independent journalist Alberto Arego, who also published a video of those affected confronting the air terminal workers. The worst thing about the case is that they did not want to take responsibility for the event, blaming instead the airline used by those affected..

“When it comes time to pick up your suitcases, only one appears. At that moment, after so much searching, the claim is made to the pertinent offices and they tell us that within 24 hours they will give us a response about what happened. This afternoon we went to this office and the general supervisor Emmanuel told us that the claim has to be made in Miami on the Delta airline,” one of the complainants declared on that occasion.
