The mother of Gerardo Hernandez, one of the five Cuban antiterrorists unjustly incarcerated in the United States, passed away at noon Monday.

Wreaths sent by Raul, Revolution leader Fidel Castro, Gerardo and his wife Adriana, and the people of Cuba, were placed on her coffin.

In spite of being ill, Carmen, 76, actively participated in the campaign to publicize the truth about the case of The Five and to promote the demand for a fair trial for these men, who attempted to prevent the carrying out of terrorist acts against Cuba.
