Popular demonstrations in Panama in
response to possible pardon for terrorists
DOZENS of Panamanian workers and university students
marched through the capital city’s streets after
learning of a possible pardon being granted to the
terrorists being held in Panama.
At
the end of the march, popular organizations
delivered a letter addressed to President Mireya
Moscoso on behalf of the prosecutors in the
terrorists’ trial, according to a dispatch from
Notimex.
The
Panamanian president ordered her country’s
ambassador in Havana to return to Panama and
demanded that Carlos Zamora, Cuba’s ambassador,
leave Panama. The Cuban government has reiterated
that if the anti-Cuban terrorists are pardoned,
diplomatic relations between the two states will be
automatically broken off for an indefinite period.
