Madrid, Jan 26 (Prensa Latina) The Catalonia Communist Party (PCC) demanded Tuesday the immediate release of five Cuban anti-terrorist fighters unfairly imprisoned in the United States for over 11 years.
Addressing their Seventh Congress, the Catalonia communists demanded in a resolution the prompt liberation and return to Cuba of Gerardo Hernandez, Rene Gonzalez, Antonio Guerrero, Fernando Gonzalez and Ramon Labañino.
The text terms unworthy the decision of the US justice of condemning those men, for merely gathering information about terrorist activities by extreme right groups of Cuban origin in southern Miami.
The UN Council of Human Rights Working Group on Arbitrary Detention declared illegal their imprisonment, the group of that Spanish autochthonous community recalled.
For over a decade, those anti-terrorist fighters have been serving sentences in US separate high-security prisons since 1998, put on solitary confinement for long periods, and two of them have been deprived of receiving the visit of his beloved ones, the resolution states.
The PCC insists the Five, as they are universally known, should be unconditionally released, so they can return home.
