Open Letter to The Attorney General of the United States of America





Mr. Alberto Gonzales


Attorney General of the United States of America





According to the information supplied by the International Press, on August 9, 2005, the Court of Appeals of the Eleventh Circuit Court of Atlanta declared null and void the decision passed in Miami which had condemned Gerardo Hernбndez Nordelo, Renй Gonzбlez Sehwerert, Ramуn Labaсino Salazar, Antonio Guerrero Rodrнguez and Fernando Gonzбlez Llort for infiltrating the extremist Cuban American groups in the south of Florida in order to obtain information about terrorist activities directed against Cuba. Their prison sentences have already been declared illegal by the Working Group on Arbitrary Detentions of the Human Rights Commission of the United Nations.





For the past seven years, these five young men have been held in maximum security prisons; they have been held incommunicado in isolated cells for long periods of time and two of them have been denied the right to receive family visits.





At this present time, considering the nullification of the sentence, nothing justifies their incarceration. This arbitrary situation which is extremely painful for them and their families, cannot be allowed to continue. We, who have signed below, are demanding their immediate liberation.

Lettre ouverte au Procureur Gйnйral des Etats-Unis





Monsieur Alberto Gonzales,


Procureur Gйnйral des Etats-Unis





Selon les information diffusйes par la presse internationale, le 9 aoыt dernier, la Cour d'appel du Onziиme circuit d'Atlanta a dйclarй nul le procиs tenu а Miami au cours duquel ont йtй condamnйs Gerardo Hernandez Nordelo, Renй Gonzalez Sehwerert, Ramon Labanino Salazar, Antonio Guerrero Rodriguez et Fernando Gonzalez Llort, qui s'йtaient infiltrйs dans les groupes extrкmistes cubano-amйricains du sud de la Floride afin d'obtenir des informations sur l'activitй terroriste contre Cuba. Leur incarcйration avait dйjа йtй dйclarйe illйgale par le Groupe de travail sur les dйtentions arbitraires de la Commission de droits de l'homme des Nations Unies.





Ces cinq jeunes se trouvent depuis sept ans dans des prisons de sйcuritй maximale ; ils ont йtй maintenus pendant de longues pйriodes dans des cellules d'isolement et deux d'entre eux ont йtй privйs de leurs droits d'йtre visitйs par leurs proches.





Aujourd'hui, tenant compte de l'annulation de leur sentence, rien ne justifie leur incarcйration. Cette situation arbitraire, si douloureuse pour eux et leurs familles, ne peut plus se prolonger. Nous, les soussignйs rйclamons leur libйration immйdiate.

Carta abierta al Fiscal General de los Estados Unidos





Seсor Alberto Gonzales


Fiscal General de los EEUU





Como se ha informado en la prensa internacional, el pasado 9 de agosto la Corte de Apelaciones del Onceno Circuito de Atlanta declarу nulo el juicio celebrado en Miami, donde se condenу a Gerardo Hernбndez Nordelo, Renй Gonzбlez Sehwerert, Ramуn Labaсino Salazar, Antonio Guerrero Rodrнguez y Fernando Gonzбlez Llort, quienes se habнan infiltrado en los grupos extremistas cubano-americanos del sur de la Florida para obtener informaciуn sobre la actividad terrorista contra Cuba. Su encarcelamiento ya habнa sido declarado ilegal por el Grupo de Trabajo sobre Detenciones Arbitrarias de la Comisiуn de Derechos Humanos de las Naciones Unidas.





Desde hace siete aсos, estos cinco jуvenes permanecen en cбrceles de mбxima seguridad; han sufrido incomunicaciуn en celdas de castigo por largos perнodos y a dos de ellos se les ha privado del derecho a recibir visitas de sus familiares.





Ahora, despuйs de la anulaciуn del juicio, nada justifica que permanezcan en prisiуn. Esta arbitraria situaciуn, tan dolorosa para ellos y sus familias, no puede prolongarse. Los abajo firmantes reclamamos su inmediata liberaciуn.
