Jorge Alberto Fernández Hernández is a Cuban American who has been detained in Venezuela for almost a year for an alleged crime of terrorism.

According to Infobae, his life is hell since February 26, 2021, when he was arrested in the Peracal Alcabala of San Antonio del Táchira because he went with a small drone.

Now he will be judged for an alleged terrorism case for carrying "a toy drone (which) used to take photos and videos in his vacation," his family told the aforementioned source.

“I have never been allowed to make a call to my parents and children, I have not been allowed to communicate with my embassies, in total violation of my human rights.My presentation hearing was on September 29, 2021, seven months after I detained, violating the Criminal Code, ”said Fernández in a letter sent to Infobae.

Fernández says that he has been a victim of xenophobia that “exists here towards the‘ gringos ’as many officials tell me disparagingly.Nor has it allowed my lawyers to defend me;During the preliminary hearing, Judge María Renee Garrido (Luisa René Garrido Traspalacios, judge of the Third Control Court with competence in terrorism) known as La Nena, denied me that right, offended me verbally with obscene words and told me to assume (the facts) or I went to trial, because she was not going to negotiate anything with me about the crimes that are imputed to me ".
