Man claiming to be ex-boyfriend of Alberto Cutié's wife sues couple, cops



As Alice would say "Curiouser and couriouser" From the Miami Herald

A man who says he is the ex-boyfriend of Ruhama Buni Canellis, the newlywed wife of former priest Alberto Cutié, is suing the couple and the Biscayne Park Police Department.

In a lawsuit filed in Miami-Dade Circuit Court, Maxi Paulus Ratunuman, 44, says Biscayne Park police arrested him without cause on June 6 while he was installing floor tiles in a customer's house on Griffing Boulevard.

The reason: Ratunuman, who the lawsuit says lived with Canellis in the Biscayne Park area for three years and helped raise her teenage son, had information ''that would bode badly'' for her and Cutié, who wanted to get him out of the picture.

Biscayne Park police officer Antonio Sanchez, named in the suit along with officer Raimundo Atesiano, arrested Ratunuman on trespassing charges.

Ratunuman, from Indonesia, is being held at the Metro West Detention Center on an immigration charge. He also faces charges of driving with an expired license. He goes to trial July 15.

Ratunuman and Canellis ''planned to be married and have children,'' according to the lawsuit. Ratunuman paid the house's mortgage because Canellis ''could not afford the residence on her own,'' but she then ''began cheating'' on him with Cutié.

Cutié has said he and Canellis became romantically involved two years ago.
