古巴周三表示,已对6名嫌疑人提起恐怖主义指控,称这些人登上了一艘悬挂佛罗里达州旗帜的快艇,据称该快艇在古巴北海岸附近海域向士兵开火。

检察院在一份声明中表示,这些具有古巴血统的嫌疑人仍被拘留,等待预审,该机构补充称,将确保”正当法律程序”,同时继续”捍卫我国人民和国家机构”。

古巴政府此前称,船上有10名来自美国的武装古巴人在试图渗透该岛实施恐怖主义行为时开火。古巴方面表示,古巴士兵进行了回击,造成4名嫌疑人死亡。

然而,白宫上周向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻确认,至少有一名美国人是四名遇难者之一。这一消息最初由Axios报道。

除了一名被杀害的美国公民外,一名美国官员向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻证实,至少还有一名美国公民在被捕者中。该官员表示,船上至少有一人持有K-1签证(允许公民的未婚夫前往美国结婚),其他人据信是美国合法永久居民,但具体人数尚不清楚。

根据该官员的说法以及佛罗里达州门罗县警长办公室的事件报告,船主指控该船被一名员工盗窃。

古巴政府公布了据称从船上找到的物品,包括十几件大功率武器、超过12,800发弹药和11把手枪。

首席检察官爱德华·罗伯特·坎贝尔告诉美联社,恐怖主义指控可能面临最高30年监禁,甚至死刑,尽管古巴自2003年以来一直暂停执行死刑。

事件中一名遇难者的兄弟表示,他的兄弟痴迷于推翻古巴政府。

米萨埃尔·奥尔特加·卡萨诺瓦(Misael Ortega Casanova)是迈克尔·奥尔特加·卡萨诺瓦(Michael Ortega Casanova)的兄弟,他向美联社表示,他的兄弟陷入了一个”痴迷且邪恶”的追求,试图将古巴从共产主义政府中解放出来。在美国的古巴人和古巴裔美国人长期以来一直抗议现古巴政府,并指责该岛领导层侵犯人权。

“他们变得如此痴迷,以至于根本不考虑后果或自己的生命,”卡萨诺瓦谈到他的兄弟和船上其他人时说道。

Cuba charges 6 suspects with terrorism over fatal shooting involving U.S.-flagged speedboat

Cuba said Wednesday it has filed terrorism charges against six suspects it claims were aboard a Florida-flagged speedboat that is alleged to have opened fire on soldiers in waters off the island’s north coast.

The Prosecutor’s Office said in a statement that the suspects of Cuban origin remain in pretrial detention, adding that it will ensure “due process” as it continues to act “in defense of our people and the country’s institutions.”

The government has said 10 heavily armed Cubans from the U.S. who were on board the boat opened fire as they tried to infiltrate the island to commit acts of terrorism. It said that Cuban soldiers returned fire, killing four suspects.

However, the White House confirmed to CBS News last week that at least one American was one of the four people killed. The news was first reported by Axios.

In addition to the American citizen who was killed, a U.S. official confirmed to CBS News that at least one U.S. citizen was also among those arrested. At least one of the boat’s occupants had a K-1 visa, the official said, which allows a citizen’s fiancé to travel to the U.S. to get married, and others are believed to be legal permanent residents of the U.S., although it was not clear how many.

According to the official and an incident report from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office in Florida, the boat’s owner alleged that the vessel had been stolen by an employee.

The Cuban government unveiled items said to have been found on the boat, including a dozen high-powered weapons, more than 12,800 pieces of ammunition and 11 pistols.

Chief prosecutor Edward Robert Campbell has told The Associated Press that terrorism charges carry a possible sentence of up to 30 years in prison or even the death penalty, although Cuba has maintained a moratorium on the latter since 2003.

The brother of one of the men who was killed in the incident said his sibling was fixated on overthrowing Cuba’s government.

Misael Ortega Casanova, brother of Michael Ortega Casanova, told the AP that his brother had fallen into an “obsessive and diabolical” quest to free Cuba from its communist government. Cubans in the United States and Cuban Americans have long protested the current Cuban government, and accused the island’s leadership of human rights violations.

“They became so obsessed that they didn’t think about the consequences nor their own lives,” Casanova said of his brother and the other men who were aboard the boat.
