Guatemalans Want Posada Tried
The Guatemalan grassroots organization Frente Nacional de Lucha, expressed its rejection to the release of terrorist Luis Posada Carriles in Friday statements.

"We think it is unacceptable that a person clearly responsible for crimes like the attack of a Cuban plane is now free without paying for his crimes," said Frente Nacional leader Roberto Madriz to Prensa Latina.

Madriz said this case is evidence of the US government s double morality, reinforced by giving all kind of benefits to terrorists like Posada Carriles.

In Guatemala more than 100 personalities and several social entities signed the international call to judge Posada Carriles for his crimes.

Among the signatories are Peace Nobel Prize winner Rigoberta Menchu and intellectual Jose Barnoya, Alfonso Bauer, Elmar Red Rene, Igor Sarmiento and Ernesto Bayley.

Also on the list are Presidential Human Rights Commissioner Frank la Rue and political leaders Pablo Monsanto, Hector Nuila and Ricardo Rosales.

Among the organizations that want punishment for Posada Carriles there are the Center of Legal Action for Human Rights, the Association of Parents of Students in Cuba and the National Union of Communities for the Human Rights.
