Saint Paul was imprisoned because of his teachings about Christianity, which were seen as a threat to the established religious and political authorities of the time. His message of spreading the Christian faith and converting people to Christianity was met with resistance by those in power, leading to his arrest and imprisonment.
The one fact that can be stated confidently is that we know nothing about the legendary Saint Valentine, not even whether he actually existed. Wikipedia says that it is uncertain whether St. Valentine is to be identified as one saint or the conflation of two saints of the same name, which if true would militate against any tradition about his supposed imprisonment.
When, in 496, Pope Gelasius included Valentine among all those "... whose names are justly reverenced among men, but whose acts are known only to God," Gelasius implies that nothing was known to him about the life of Valentine. Subsequent tradition speaks of St. Valentine being arrested for secretly marrying young couples so that the husbands could avoid military service.
There is no doubt that at least one Saint Valentine existed, in fact, there are about 14 recognized by the Church. Confusion arises because two of these Valentines suffered martyrdom in Rome about the same time under Roman Emperor Claudius II Gothicus. One was a priest working in Rome and the second was Valentine the Bishop of Interamna, Terni, in Italy, who happened to be in Rome on Church business at the time. Their lives had become so intertwined and embellished by hagiographers over the years that it became impossible to separate them and the stories circulating. What was truth and what was legend? In 1969, due to this confusion, Saint Valentine was removed from the Calendar of Saints. His cult has not been suppressed so veneration is still allowed. However, any saint undergoing martyrdom for their faith is most worthy of veneration even if the whole story remains shrouded in mystery and legend.
Valentine was purportedly imprisoned for secretly marrying couples after the emperor had made it illegal.
