US DIPLOMATS in Havana confirmed this weekend that they had been briefed on four Florida residents arrested on suspicion of preparing attacks against Cuban military installations.
The US Interests Section acknowledged meeting Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs representatives, saying: “The Cubans provided some information about the allegations which we are now reviewing.”
Cuba’s Interior Ministry has identified the men as Jose Ortega Amador, Obdulio Rodriguez Gonzalez, Raibel Pacheco Santos and Felix Monzon Alvarez.
It said that they were detained in late April for planning terrorist actions masterminded from Florida.
The ministry accused them of plotting to attack military installations.
It identified Miami-based Cuban-American terrorists Santiago Alvarez Fernandez Magrina, Osvaldo Mitat and Manuel Alzugaray as having directed the four men’s activities.
Two of these men pleaded guilty to conspiracy in the US in 2006 after an informant tipped off the FBI about weapons being moved from apartments Mr Alvarez owned.
