Peruvian Women Demand Freedom of the Cuban Five

PERU, November 10, 2010.-  A large group of prominent Peruvian women sent a letter to U.S. Ambassador to Peru, Rose M. Likins, demanding freedom for the five Cuban antiterrorists unjustly imprisoned in the U.S. since 1998.

The letter was delivered at the site of the U.S. Embassy in Lima by a delegation that included singer and songwriter Marcela Perez, poet Rossina Valcarcel, painter Fanny Palacios, and teacher Milagros Valdeavellano.

The letter presents the 138 signers as a progressive group of Peruvian women, interested in human rights and the prevailing of justice.

In the letter, the women say that they just want to convey their concern over the case of the five Cubans who are serving unjust sentences in U.S. prisons on unproven charges.

The letter also says that Rene Gonzalez, Fernando Gonzalez, Ramon Labañino, Antonio Guerrero and Gerardo Hernandez have devoted their lives to fighting terrorism and promoting friendship among peoples. (Cubaminrex-RHC)
