Havana, Mar 30 (Prensa Latina) Rene Gonzalez, one of the five anti-terrorist Cuban fighters unfairly given harsh prison sentences in the United States, arrived to Cuba on Friday on a family, private visit in the wake of authorization by a US judge to visit his gravely ill brother.
According to information released by the TV news program, Rene arrived minutes alter midday.
On February 24, Rene had filed through his lawyer an emergency motion before the South Florida District Court, requesting an authorization to visit his brother, seriously ill in Cuba.
Nearly a month later, on March 19, Judge Joan Lenard, who have been handling the case of The Cuban Five since the start of their proceedings, authorized the trip for 15 days under certain conditions, including obtaining all US government travel permits needed.

I'm certain he would never turn his back on the other Cuban patriots waiting behind to be freed.
