US Indicts Raúl Castro for 1996 Plane Shootdown
Description
Justice Department to Charge Raúl Castro in 1996 Plane Shootdown
The U.S. Justice Department is set to indict former Cuban President Raúl Castro for his role in the 1996 downing of two planes belonging to the exile group Brothers to the Rescue. The charges, which include murder and destruction of an airplane, are part of an escalating pressure campaign on the Cuban government. Despite Castros age and unlikely U.S. custody, the indictment is seen as a significant symbolic move to exert pressure and potentially gain concessions.
