Americans released
Four Americans held in Cuba since the mid-1960s have been released, the United States State Department has said. It denied there was a package deal involving the release last week of four Puerto Rican terrorists from United States prisons. Cuban officials earlier had also denied any quid pro quo. The Americans were identified as Larry Lunt, sentenced to 30 years in 1965 for espionage; John Tur, sentenced to 30 years for counter-revolutionary activities in 1963; Everett Jackson, sentenced to 30 years for espionage in 1967; and Claudio Rodriguez Moralez, sentenced to 20 years in 1966 for smuggling people out of Cuba. — Washington.
