HAVANA, Cuba, April 29 (acn) The president of Cuba’s People’s Power National Assembly (Parliament), Ricardo Alarcon, stressed on Tuesday the need to fight on behalf of the victims of terrorism until justice is achieved.
In a meeting to mark the 30th anniversary of the death of Cuban-born revolutionary activist Carlos Muñiz, who was killed by members of the Omega 7 terrorist organization, Alarcon condemned the crime and pointed out that it still remains unpunished.
The Cuban official said the assassins continue to walk freely on the streets of San Juan, Puerto Rico, or Miami and added that the CIA and the US Justice Department could do justice if they wanted to.
He also pointed out the importance of extending the fight against terrorism to the case of the five Cubans imprisoned in the US for trying to avoid similar crimes against the Cuban people or government leaders.
Those revolutionaries have been held since 1998 after having been sentenced in a biased trial held in Miami.
Alarcon stated that while the five Cubans remain in jail, American authorities will be responsible for the injustice, the arbitrariness, and the crime, and said that such an attitude is considered as complicity according to law.
Carlos Muñiz, born in Cuba and based in Puerto Rico, was a student leader supporting the independence of that country. He was a member of the National Committee of the Antonio Maceo brigade and was the president of the Viajes Varadero travel agency.
The homage ceremony took place at the Casa de la Amistad, in Havana, with the participation of members of the Antonio Maceo brigade from the United States, and of the Primero de Mayo brigade, and also relatives of victims of terrorist actions against Cuba and of the Cuban Five, among others.
