HAVANA, Jun 10 (PRENSA LATINA).— Cuban youth on
Tuesday called to multiply international protests of
students and social movements for the release of the five
Cuban anti-terrorists unfairly imprisoned in the US.
Hundreds of young people in front of the US Interest Section
in Havana reiterated their rejection of the injustices the
Five Heroes are suffering, after nearly ten years in prison.
Luis Morlote, president of the Hermanos Sainz Associations
of Young Creators, reaffirmed the commitment of young
generations with the Cuban people's struggle for the return
of the Five.
He also called upon youth and students organizations
worldwide to join the Cuban demand, and condemn the
injustice.
On June 4, the 11th circuit of the Atlanta Court of Appeals
upheld the convictions against Gerardo Hernandez, Antonio
Guerrero, Ramon Labañino, Fernando Gonzalez, and Rene
Gonzalez, who are serving long sentences, including several
life imprisonments.
That decision has been widely condemned in the world, as the
defense demonstrated at that court the existence of
anomalies in the initial trial.
In addition, the demonstrators demanded the immediate
imprisonment of confessed terrorist Luis Posada Carriles,
requested in Venezuela for the mid-flight explosion of a
passenger plane and other crimes.
