Bolivia's President Signs Petition for Cuban Five Release

Havana, Oct 17 (acn) Bolivia's President Evo Morales joined the 
international movement calling for the release of five Cuban 
antiterrorist fighters imprisoned in the United States for more than 
nine years.

The Bolivian leader added his name on Tuesday to a demand that has been 
already signed by some 300 world figures from 30 countries including 
Nobel Prize laureates Adolfo Perez Esquivel (Argentina), Nadine 
Gordimer (South Africa), Wole Soyinka (Nigeria) and Zhores Alfiorov 
(Russia), reported Prensa Latina news agency.

Known internationally as the Cuban Five, Gerardo Hernandez, Ramon 
LabaC1ino, Rene Gonzalez, Fernando Gonzalez and Antonio Guerrero were 
arrested and submitted to an irregularity-fraught trial in a biased 
Miami courtroom after submitting evidence to US authorities of 
terrorist plans organized against Cuba by Southern Florida-based 
organizations.
