Relatives of the victims of Barbados crime demand Posada’s conviction.
By Juan Leandro
Havana, May 3, (RHC). – The Committee of Relatives of the Victims of the Cuban airliner blown off Barbados in 1973 sent a second letter to US President, Barack Obama, rejecting the acquittal of terrorist Luis Posada Carriles, as a display of US double standards on fighting terrorism.

The document was delivered at US Interests Office in Havana and publicly released in a press conference a few hours later.

Camilo Rojo, a relative of a victim of terrorism in our country, stressed that there were enough juridical instruments to convict Posada Carriles as a terrorist and not as a liar, labelling the recently concluded trial against this criminal in El Paso, Texas a “farce”.         

The letter also demanded Posada’s extradition to Venezuela in observance of the Resolution 1373, the Montreal Agreement of 1971 and the Extradition Treaty between Venezuela and United States. But most of all, demanded that Posada Carriles be declared a terrorist.

On the other hand, Giustino Di Celmo, Fabio Di Celmo’s father, was outraged by the release of Posada Carriles. He said, “This confessed terrorist is laughing not only at Cuba, but at the whole world and mainly at the justice that does not exist in United States of America." 
    
”While Posada Carriles enjoys full impunity, men like Ramon Labañino, Rene Gonzalez, Gerardo Hernandez, Fernando Gonzalez and Antonio Guerrero are unjustly held in US prisons for preventing terrorist actions against Cuba”, read the letter.

These coward actions have taken a toll of countless deaths and wounded, as well as material and economic losses. They were masterminded in United States by anti-Cuban terrorist organizations that seek to destroy the Revolution through criminal bloodshed. (Cubaminrex- RHC)
