LONDRA NEGA A RENE IL VISTO D'INGRESSO --- British Government refuses visa for René González !
INCREDIBILE... René Gonzalez -il primo dei CINQUE combattenti antiterroristi cubani assurdamente sequestrati e torturati negli USA 15 anni fa- era invitato dal Comitato inglese che ha organizzato un grande evento europeo, a Londra ,dal prossimo 6 marzo, giorno in cui i partecipanti (personalità di tutto il mondo) saranno ricevuti in Parlamento. LONDRA GLI HA NEGATO IL VISTO D'INGRESSO NEL PAESE... perchè è stato detenuto!
E René doveva esserci, proprio per denunciare l'ingiustizia subita, come testimone diretto di quel che i CINQUE facevano negli USA, del terrorismo che ha causato a CUBA 3475 morti, di come sono stati arrestati, della tortura subita in 17 mesi di totale sequestro, del processo legalmente INESISTENTE che hanno subìto (condannato dalla stessa Commissione Detenzioni Arbitrarie dell'ONU), della tortura aggiuntiva che gli è stata imposta negandogli il diritto di ricevere le visite della moglie...
LA COMPLICITA' FRA IL "CAMPIONE DELLA DEMOCRAZIA" D'OLTRE OCEANO E IL PAESE CHE, IN EUROPA, L'HA "FIGLIATO" E' GROTTESCA.
QUESTO E' UNO SFREGIO ALLA COMUNITA' INTERNAZIONALE... QUELLA VERA, COMPOSTA DAI POPOLI DEL MONDO
E' IMPORTANTE CHE DENUNCIAMO QUESTA VERGOGNOSA AZIONE BRITANNICA... (anche per muovere al ravvedimento)

Late on Monday 3 March, just a few hours before he was due to fly from Havana to London, René González, was refused a visa to enter in the UK.
René González is the principal witnesses for the International Commission of Inquiry into the case of the Cuban Five which takes place at the Law Society in London on 7 and 8 March.
In its letter of refusal, the UK Immigration and Visa Office states that it is due to point 320 (2b) of UK immigration law, which says entry can be denied to a person who has been sentenced to more than four years in prison. Although, dispensation can be granted in exceptional circumstances, the UK government states that it does not consider Mr González’s attendance at the International Commission to be reason enough to justify this or “outweighed by the public interest in maintaining a refusal.”
Rob
Miller, director of the Cuba Solidarity Campaign, one of the organisers of the
Commission said this morning:
“ We are deeply disappointed and surprised by the decision to refuse a visa to
René González.
“The British government has the opportunity to show discretion on visa applications in circumstances like this but has chosen not to do so with regards to René González’s application. In the context of the already highly politicised case of the Miami Five, such a decision can only be interpreted as a political one.
“We
have taken legal advice and will be appealing this decision including seeking
an urgent Judicial Review if necessary.”
González returned home to Cuba in May 2013 after serving 13 years
in prison and 18 months of supervised released in the United States. He was
arrested with four other members of the Miami Five in 1998 after infiltrating
Florida-based responsible for carrying out terrorist attacks against Cuba.
The fairness of their trial has been questioned by international human rights
groups including Amnesty International. One of the aims of the Commission of
Inquiry is to investigate this aspect of the case. Twenty international
witnesses and commissioners including their US legal team, family members,
victims of terrorism against Cuba, and experts on international law, US- Cuba
relations and human rights are arriving in Britain this week to take part in
the International Commission of Inquiry and associated events on Friday 7 and
Saturday 8 March.
Former Unite general secretary and leading Miami five campaigner, Tony Woodley said: "The decision to refuse René González a visa to enter the UK is deeply unsettling. I can't see the public interest in refusing René entry into the UK. On the contrary it is in the public interest to lay bare the circumstances surrounding the arrest and imprisonment of the Miami Five. For the sake of openness and transparency we hope the UK government thinks again and allows René González to attend the commission."
“The Commission and events will still continue this weekend, and we are
making every effort to get this decision overturned and enable Rene to come to
Britain to participate. Thousands of people in the UK, including hundreds of
MPs, have been campaigning for the freedom and justice for the Five for more
than ten years and are waiting to welcome Rene to Britain,” said Mr Miller.
