HAVANA TIMES — Speaking to CNN, Mariela Casto said on Monday that American “subcontractor” Alan Gross and the Cuban Five, imprisoned in the US, should be released.
“What we want most is the well-being of all of their families,” said the director of the National Sex Education Center during her visit to the US. The daughter of Cuban president Raul Castro added, “I think that all six should be released.”
According to the Cubaencuentro report, Castro stressed that “this would be the happiest outcome for everyone involved.”
Some US analysts have said that the Cuban government is holding Gross, sentenced to 15 years for threatening Cuban security, to pressure Washington to make an exchange for the Cuban Five who have been imprisoned in the US since 1998.
