A doctor by profession like her father, Aleida Guevara told the Prensa Latina news agency over the telephone that it was an honor to attend the inauguration of the health center, at the invitation of prefect Anderson Fontes, from the Workers’ Party.
 

Che’s daughter, in Brazil for a week now, commented that on Thursday she participated in the massive graduation of technicians in several specialities from various social organizations in the South American country, held at the Federal University of Bahia, where she took part in an exchange on Cuban reality and the ideas and the legacy of the Heroic Guerrilla, as well as in another meeting at the Ernesto Che Guevara Cultural Center located in Fortaleza, in the state of Ceara.
 

In addition, in that same city, Aleida participated in the creation of the Ceara’s
Parliamentary Front for Friendship with Cuba and for the release of the five Cubans unfairly incarcerated in the United States for over 11 years now for fighting terrorism.
 

Gerardo Hernandez, Ramon Labañino, Fernando Gonzalez, Antonio Guerrero and Rene Gonzalez were condemned in Miami in 2001 to sentences ranging from 15 years to two life imprisonments, for monitoring the criminal activities of Florida-based anti-Cuban organizations.
