A message from the Cuban 5 on the execution of Troy Davis

Published Oct 10, 2011 9:47 PM

The Cuban Five are political prisoners in the U.S. who are collectively serving four life sentences and 75 years after being falsely convicted of politically motivated criminal charges while monitoring operations of anti-Cuba terrorist organizations in Miami. The following message was issued Sept. 23 by Ramón Labañino on behalf of the Cuban Five.

Brothers and sisters:

We feel deeply the horrific execution of Troy Davis. It is another terrible injustice and stain on the history of this country. We join in the pain felt by his relatives, friends and brothers across the world. Now we have another cause, another flag, to pursue our struggle for a better world for all, free of the death penalty and barbarism.

In Troy’s honor, and all the innocents of the world, we must continue, united, until the final victory!

Our most heart-felt condolences!

Five fraternal embraces,
Antonio Guerrero,
Fernando González,
Gerardo Hernández,
René González,
Ramón Labañino
