Cubans from the city of Cárdenas denounce an increase in theft of water meters, the objective of the thieves, according to those affected, is to sell the stopcocks, another input that does not appear on the island.
Through the group’Cardenenses on Facebook’ Internet user Ariel Garriga Pérez published a video where the water can be seen gushing out in the corridor without control.
Garriga Pérez explains that he was arriving at his house when the trail of water on the road caught his attention.
When checking, she realized that her neighbor’s water meter had been stolen, and she assures that the one in her own house was not stolen because in her home they had the door open and they were sitting near the doorway.
“Now at 3:30 am the neighbor’s water meter was stolen, until when,” said the Cuban lamenting that thieves no longer have limits in Cuba.
The Internet user explained that this is not the first robbery in his neighborhood “other neighbors told me that this is like the room (counter) that they have on this block, apparently what they do is sell the stop keys, that the watches are they throw a few meters away, it’s a pin… what we are experiencing”, he stated in his complaint.
Other Cubans confirmed in their publication that apparently what they take are the stopcocks to sell.
