US intends to avoid Posada
Carriles's extradition: Rangel
The United States intends to
send Luis Posada Carriles to a
country rather than Venezuela
who requested his extradition in
May, said Venezuelan Vice
President Jose Vicente Rangel on
Friday in Cuba.
At the meeting on terrorism,
truth and justice in Havana,
capital of Cuba, Rangel warned
against the US intention to
avoid the extradition of Posada
Carriles, who was indicted in
Venezuela in the 1970s for
involvement in the 1976
terrorist attack on a Cubana de
Aviacion airliner, which killed
73.
He escaped from prison in 1985.
Rangel said he doubts there will
be a positive US response to the
Venezuelan request in the end
because the United States fears
the terrorist could reveal his
ties with Washington.
