"Fidel Castro had a predominant place in Abraham Jiménez Enoa's early years. His grandfather worked as a bodyguard for El Comandante, as well as for Che Guevara. Jiménez Enoa's relatives were high-ranking military officers in the Cuban government, and he lived a comfortable life in the heart of the communist system. [...] But Jiménez Enoa, now 33, turned his back on his family history to forge a career as an independent journalist, and it cost him dearly. In November, he says, the Cuban government gave him an ultimatum: leave or go to jail. He left in January . As he adjusts to a new life in Barcelona, Spain, Jiménez Enoa says it was worth the price to report on what he believed to be the truth."
