Cuba arrests 4 exiles, alleges terror plot

Four Cuban exile residents of Miami, Florida, were detained on the island and accused of planning “terrorist actions,” Havana authorities said Wednesday. The Interior Ministry said in a statement that the men were arrested April 26 and that their targets were military. “They intended to attack military installations with the objective of furthering violent actions,” the statement said. “To such ends, since mid-2013, three of them had made several trips to the island to study and carry out their plan.” The statement named the detained men as Jose Ortega Amador, Obdulio Rodriguez Gonzalez, Raibel Pacheco Santos, and Felix Monzon Alvarez.
