Free the Cuban Five: 16 Years is too long


Federal police refused to allow a member of the Australia-Cuba Friendship Society from handing a letter to US consulate staff to be passed on to president Obama. Obama has the power to free the three remaining members of the Cuban Five who are still in US prisons.

The action took place in Perth Australia on the 16th anniversary of the incarceration of five Cuban men who were charged with espionage because they were collective evidence against US-based terrorists planning attacks on Cuba.
