The Cuban Five
In September 1998, five Cuban men were imprisoned in the
U.S. for trying to stop Miami exile groups from committing violent acts
against Cuba. More information on the case can be found at
the International Committee for the Freedom of the Cuban 5
and the National
Committee to Free the Cuban
Five.
Appeals continue in the case. One of
the current grounds for appeal is the discovery that Miami reporters were being paid by the U.S. government to write
inflammatory articles about the Five while the trial was underway.
On Friday, October 7, 2011, the first
of the five was released from the Florida prison where he spent 13 years
while being unjustly sanctioned. In May 2013, after serving part of three
years of probation in Miami, he was given permission to return to Cuba
permanently.
