'Cuban Five' painter's exhibition opens tomorrow

AN exhibition of paintings by one of the unjustly imprisoned “Cuban Five” opens in Manchester tomorrow.

Antonio Guerrero was imprisoned in the United States along with Gerado Hernandez Nordelo, Ramon Labanino, Fernando Gonzales and Rene Gonzalez after exposing the organising of terrorist attacks on Cuba by Cuban exiles in collusion with the United States’ Central Intelligence Agency.

Their offence was to have infiltrated terrorist cells operating in Miami which in the 1980s had been orchestrating bombing campaigns in Cuba. This included the blowing up of a civilian airline flight.
