Five’s case in violation of international regulations

IN the case of the five Cuban patriots (Gerardo Hernández, Antonio Guerrero, René González, Ramón Labańino and Fernando González) their human rights are still being violated. The men received long and unjust prison sentences for having acted against Miami terrorists and in defense of the U.S. people.

Now the U.S. government is refusing to give visas to Olga and Adriana, the wives of René and Gerardo respectively, thus violating international rulings on family rights and U.S. law. This decision condemns the men to having no contact with their closest family members.

We urge that the authorities of that powerful country and the international media break their silence over this case, so shameful to the United States. The five Cubans were subjected to a political trial perverted by the Miami terrorist mafia’s malign plans of vengeance in complicity with the U.S. authorities.

International solidarity is very important in the context of calls for a retrial for these prisoners and for winning respect for their human rights and those of their families.
