Defense Tries to Prevent Evidence in Posada Case

HAVANA TIMES, Nov. 19 – The defence of self-confessed terrorist Luis Posada Carriles asked judge Kathleen Cardone to reject the presentation of evidence linking the accused with the attacks against hotel installations in Cuba in 1997, causing the death of Italian Fabio di Celmo. Posada will appear before court in the United States next January 10 to answer for migration crimes, reported IPS.

Posada is also wanted in Venezuela and Cuba for the 1976 bomb sabotage of a commercial Cuban airliner that killed all 73 persons on board, an act that the Cuban born man has previously bragged about orchestrating.
