BEING PONENTE JUDGE Msc. TATIANA BEHAR PANTALEÓN.

FIRST BEING: Proven which from the same triumph of the Cuban Revolution in nine and fifty January thousands nine hundred, the different North American administrations have devised different policies with the only aim to overthrow our revolution and to the same person of its maximum leader Fidel Castro Ruz. To that effect they have established different variants in agreement with the different conditions and existing historical conjunctures as much in the internal plane as international; , which they have gone from the sabotages, the blockade economic and the organization of military invasions, although without letting use subtler methods like those to foment the internal subversion; however, for more than forty and three years all their efforts have been unfruitful.

In the attainment of these plans many citizens have played a preponderant role who were born in Cuba and which they emigrated towards the United States of America and where they conformed without number of organizations and groupings been in his majority in the city of MIAMI, state of Florida, all of contrarrevolucionario character, those that they have been have been financed by the successive administrations of the United States of political and social North America, in order that they subsidize not only his requirements, but to citizens that although resident within the Cuban territory were inconformes with the economic system, decided by the immense majority of their citizens, quines from the own Cuban territory betraying to the country where they were born indifferently and to his own town have offered information that go from presenting our plans economic, to providing data on our institutions and leaders, according to were the case, information that with marked almost always I animate malicious distort themselves in consonancia with the intentions that are tried.

This form to act viabilizó still more first with the opening of the office of interests of the United States of North America in Cuba and later in the Nineties soon of the landslide of the USSR and the socialist field, since the United States of North America considered that the difficult economic situation by which we crossed and that was agravated still more with the new outbreak of the blockade that almost from the beginning of the Revolution to us the Government of the United States imposed and with the new policy that implemented and whose main targets shaped in the Law Torricelli and the Law HeIms-Burton, would be obtained a pacifica transition towards the democracy and for to accelerate the same one they decided to fortify to the elements of the internal opposition being made think them that they would be the futures you lead in Cuba Doing to him the game to the government of the United States of North America the Mafia Cuban-American been in MIAMI and with the support of the Office of Interests of the United States of America been in City of Havana, the defendant MIGUEL GALBAN GUTIERREZ, Cuban, resident citizen in the Municipality of Güines, Province of Havana, that did not share the ideas and principles of most of the Cuban town and that from four and ninety October thousands nine hundred and thousands nine hundred ninety and six had developed contrarrevolucionarias activities in the organization denominated contrarrevolucionaria School of Engineers and Architects, directed by the Orfirio citizen Garci'a Quesada, but that left them to dedicate itself taking advantage of kindness that our society offered him, first a to study a masters and later to it recovered of an operation that practiced to him gratuitously in its arm and right hand product of an injury that suffered as a result of an automobile accident, reincorpora to those contrarrevolucionarias activities in the month of August of year two thousands one, through the Cuban citizen Jadír Hernandez Hernandez - that soon left Cuba by legal route -, also, resident in the Municipality of Güines, that at those moments fungía like President of Commission of Alternative Stages - organization nonregistered by the Direction of Associations of the Cuban Ministry of Justice.

Later defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ next to the citizen Hernandez Hernandez participated in the creation of the illegal organization denominated "Cuba Commission" -. the one that was dedicated to the search of information on our political, economic and social system later to disclose them in illegal pamphlets -, and of which I get to be its national coordinator Also the defendant comprised of other existing contrarrevolucionarias organizations in its municipality of residence such as movement "10 of December" and the "Center of Veterans, Pro democracy".

In the month of September of own year two thousands one are unified all the competing groups to the government that existed in the Municipality of Güines, being created the Civic Coordinating organization, South Habana (C.C.H.S) and later Alianza Cuban Ci'vica (ACC) and to which they not only belonged defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ and Jadír Hernandez but other people between whom the companion stood out Noel Ascanio Montero, agent "Abel" for the Security of the Cuban State, who made in same the activities of infiltration; source by means of which it managed to know many the activities developed by these individuals.Later defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ settled down relations with opponents pertaining to other contrarrevolucionarias organizations been fundamentally in the province City of Havana, between eIlas Robert of Miranda, Carlos Otero River, etc, quines also are at the moment being responsible for similar facts.

The activities that GUTIERREZ in these illegal organizations developed to defendant GALBAN happened to constitute life way, so that in date fifteen of March of two thousands the two, decided to leave the labor bond that until those moments it had had, dedicating itself completely to their competing work to the Cuban Government.

During , first times of his contrarrevolucionaria activity defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ, was a fervent radius listens of badly called Martí Radio, transmitter that is dedicated to propagandizar the false news on facts supposedly happened in Cuba, and other true ones but distorted; as well as to try to denigrate the figure of our leaders, but later like part of the policy implemented by the Agency of Development the International for Latin America and the Caribbean (USAID) that in order to give to fulfillment to him Section one hundred nine of the Law Helms –Burton stimulating the creation of independent journalists, defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ that since already we have referred could acquire thanks to the System of education established by the Revolutionary State a high cultural level when graduating in the University as Licensed in Mechanical Engineering and soon he made a masters began to provide information to this radial transmitter to traverse of Agency Habana Press - the one that is not recognized by the Union of Journalists and Writers of Cuba -, of which autotituló reporter or "independent" journalist - in spite of not being it -, information whom he obtained from third people or whom he personally devised with malicious intentions to discredit the institutions of the Cuban Government, to disinform on our reality, to subvertir the order, internal, to contribute to the conflict atmosphere creation to spread false violations of the human rights and to urge the civil disobedience, to, aim to generate situations that caused conditions for a call humanitarian intervention "if it occurred the international conjuncture that allowed it; thus between many others for example trasmitió one the news that was offered the five of June of two thousands the two, in the part number sixty and eight where it informed on a supposed riot happened in the prison of Melena 2 located in the municipality of the same name in the Province of Havana the twenty-five of May of that same year, alleging that more than one hundred inmates pertaining to the company number five there were rioter, burning mattresses, destroying beds, producing a short circuit and other damages whose quantity said did not know. In demand, of which his head, was not transferred to another jail in the rear area; reason by which the inmates had, brutally struck with wood canes by a force to miliar that it was in a relation of ten by one and that it had been necessary to neutralize them with water spurts, being had to be choked the action which I denominate "of civic resistance", by the body anti-riot of the airborne force and Department of the Interior , police and fireman of three municipalities; the news that briefed had provided him to the Director of the Center Pro Freedom and Democracy Marta I. Horta Pupo, Organization who was not credited either in the Direction of Associations of the Ministry of Justice of Cuba and who most important was exaggerated until irrisorios limits.

That also following the game to him the USAID that within their main activities had the article publication of the calls "independent journalists" in Internet, soon to distribute copies of the same ones in Cuba, and since defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ did not have computer in his address and as he did not have either I tie labor with the Cuban State, he either did not have access to the existing ones in many centers of work of the country began to visit the seat of the Office of Interests of the United States of –North America, located in the Capital of the country with a weekly frequency, allowing to it him in this seat during two hours to sail by Internet, place where he obtained to restore again contact with Hernandez Hernandez after which this one took root in MIAMI and made contact with the enemy with the Foundation Cuban-American, receiving from this one very many electronic mails where it stimulated it to continue its bonds with the SINA, to continue making contrarrevolucionarias activities and promised financial aid to him for the necessary means purchase for the remission of the information and in payment by them, which was verified

I materialize myself '; as well as it raised to him to create a Bulletin to spread to its ideas and the contrarrevolucionarias actions that they were developed in the Province of Havana - recognizing to him that this project would be supported by the FNCA. Besides to request of it sent a telephone number to him so that members of this organization contacted it to begin the plan -, and whose first number saw the light between the months of November and December of own year two thousands two, to that denominated "Arriba River" the voice of the Mayabeque and which the own GALBAN GUTIERREZ was named director, because it sent most of the information that in him appeared, although also others appeared to name of also the defendant LEFT JOSE UBALDO HERNANDEZ, who also although by less time, had been authorized to use the computers of the SINA and sailed by Internet; in addition to which it maintained communications with the magazine "CUBANET"-dedicated to the spreading of supposed human violations of the right in Cuba -, through a denominated group "Honor", whose objectives were also to falsear and to distort the testimonies and received information to discredit to the Revolution and its institutions; offering these news articles, although it lacked qualification and knowledge for the activity, those that were taken by Hernandez Hernandez and including in the Bulletin "Arriba River" the voice of the Mayabeque who this last one was in charge to make in the United States de Norte- America and who soon sent so that she was distributed between the contrarrevolucionarios of the Province of Havana.

As a result of this project and in the own month of August of year two thousands two, like defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ. LEFT HERNANDEZ completely left the labor bond that maintained until those moments, dedicating itself to the subversive work.

Of the Bulletin "single Arriba River" four numbers were made and distributed or editions and in the last one of date four of March of two thousands the three published the news offered by the LEFT defendant HERNANDEZ who raised that in the municipality of Güines between the two and the nine of quinielitas February, people had presented/displayed own sintomatologías of the hepatitis type "C" or viral, confirming itself I diagnose almost of the disease in the totality of them by the practiced examinations; adding that it responded to the contamination of the sources of located water supply in the town of Catherine de Güines as well as who another bud of the same disease had happened in the own municipality in the year two thousands one and that had entailed to the closing of emergency of the state gastronomical units and prevailed; adding that the information had provided a doctor to it of guard of the hospital of the municipality and that was confirmed by declarations oficiaIes, when the certain thing it was that of thirty and the one of January to the four of March of two thousands the three had confirmed the existence of two hundred ninety and six cases of viral hepatitis "To", due to the breakage of the network of aqueducts in a determined point of the distant municipality about nine kilometers of the place where HERNANDEZ when giving located the LEFT defendant their information everything which was confirmed by the Municipal Director from Higiene and Epidemiología of the Municipality of Güines.

Others of the information offered by defendant IZQUJERDO HERNANDEZ were provided by also the defendant HECTOR to him RAUL VALLE HERNANDEZ, opponent to the Government member of the Confederation of Democratic Workers of Cuba (CTDC) - illegal organization -, of whom VALLEY HERNANDEZ was the Vice-president, to grief that for more than five years that he did not work, the one who in synthesis talked about to the existing alarm between the neighbors of the Municipality of San jOse of the Lajas, located in the own Province of Havana - and where last one resides this, by the increase of the crime of Robbery with Force in houses and centers labor during year two thousand two, giving number superior to one hundred and where it criticized much less to the police when showing that although the facts were denounced this one did not go to the places, if they occurred in times of the night; tying this information to another one of the same tenor who provided VALLE HERNANDEZ to him to another autotitulado "journalist, independent" and who appeared published in the Project "Cuba Free Press", where one talked about that the address of own VALLE HERNANDEZ had been object of a robbery with force that had been in attempt degree but that the police in spite of to be warned had not gone to the place because the victim was an opponent to the Government, to whom the Commander of the Municipal Unit had informed to him that was no time for it, because the crimes committed in centers had priority estataIes; verifying itself nevertheless that these facts were not denounced officially, but that in spite of it the operative guard had concurred to the place to instances of the defendant.

AI foot of the information that reported the LEFT defendant HERNANDEZ briefed Civic Library "Sebastián Arcs", since this person who until year two thousands pronounced itself please in the revolution, belonged to her organizations sociaIes and of masses, as well as it was member of, organizations of vanguard of Cuban youth and its working class, occupying responsibilities in the first a municipality level, as well as she toiled later in the Company of Commerce and Services like employee first and Administrator, in year two thousands - a turn in his began conduct and got up to the contrarrevolucionaria Organization "Cuba Commission" - of which he was the regional coordinator -, and that as already we expressed directed at those moments the citizen Hernandez Hernandez, who HERNANDEZ knew by interval of defendant GALBAN who stops that then fungía like national coordinator of this organization.

This defendant also like part of activities implemented by USAID, between that they were the creation of independent Libraries in the addresses of some of the members of the contrarrevolucionarios grupúsculos that to that aim received the provision of books, bulletins and pamphlets through the Office of Interests, created in its house located in three avenue eighty and number three thousands six between thirty and two and thirty and four Property Cross, Municipality of Güines, Province of Havana, "an independent" Library to which he denominated "Sebastián Arcs" - in memory of the Cuban citizen of that name, that died in an Establishment Penitentiary Cuban when he extinguished sanction by contrarrevolucionarios crimes and to which the opponents to our social system consider a fighter for the rights, humans library who was not legalized, reason why did not receive book provision of the Cuban State, but that a vehicle of the SINA that a civil employee of Cubalse, named Ricardito lead and of which their other generals do not know themselves, with a monthly regularity gave books to him, pamphlets and magazines, among them the own bulletins "Arriba River", of whom eleven took care, bulletins of the Cuban Project "I I demand", survey on temás ecological, folletín "new Words", pamphlets of the Dissident, numbers of political and social the Cubanet magazine, documents that contain information of economic character, and whose circulation only could constitute a stimulus to gain followers to the capitalist ideology, since lack cultural and literary values; also it received by this route leaves, pens and pencils.

In relation to the defendant VALLEY HERNANDEZ "that was verified in addition who began in the contrarrevolucionarias activities in miI nine hundred ninety and two in the party Pro human rights in Cuba and which to the CTDC nine hundred ninety and five entered in thousands, year in tried to emigrate towards the United States de Norte- America reason why it visited the Office of interests of this country in Cuba, place where it will be taken care of by a civil employee who was interested in her political position and the competing groups to that she belonged; In year two thousands two returned to this diplomatic seat where propaganda was given to him contrarrevolucionarias that transferred to its municipality of San jOse residence of the Lajas, where distributed it.

It has used his address in uninformed the contrarrevolucionarias taking of steps such as by the freedom of "the political" prisoners - contrarrevolucionarios -, meetings, etc.

Was evident that as much defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ as LEFT HERNANDEZ received money by their contrarrevolucionaria work, at least during the last semester of year two thousands two and until their halting the eighteen of March of two thousands the three and that of it lived, it shows concrete was a communication by electronic mail that in the month of December of two thousands the two sent to Hernandez Hernandez to him to first informing money shipments in the last five months to him, detailing the amount to distribute to him and the names of the people to those who it went directed. In addition to other post office in which he raised to him that he had obtained, two quotas of thirty dollars one for and the other person and he committed himself to send aid to him to buy a typewriter and a camera, originating of members of the FNCA. Among other messages of support and solidarity of that same organization.

The three defendant resuItaron lengthy to you are from this process the eighteen of March of two thousands the three and he practiced registries in his addresses occupying them to it goods, objects and documents that give credit of the contrarrevolucionarias activities to that they came dedicating: to GALBAN abundant GUTIERREZ documentation forty dollars a survey to inform on Radio Martí, a programming of contentiva Martí Radio of the numbers of band hour and day of the week of trasmisión of its programming, three hundred ninety and eight documents or pamphlets removed from Internet by the SINA, eighteen, pamphlet packages removed by the same one via, eleven you exceed yellows that contained pamphlets removed by the same one via, thirteen you exceed yellow with Literature presses and cuItura of SINA, twelve you exceed of the Press office and Culture of the SINA directed to its name, two you exceed with documents of the Bulletin "Arriba River", a typewriter mark Remington, a poster that "Municipal Mayorship of Güines" said and other that said "We condemned the state terrorism", a radius marks Tecsun, as well as other documents and goods.

That during the investigativo process it was possible to be known that to the defendant VALLEY HERNANDEZ IE seven radios were given marks Tecsun in order that it distributed them people to other, so that they listened to with facility the subversive transmitter badly call Martí Radio.

As far as the conduct of the defendant it was proven that:

MIGUEL GALBAN GUTIERREZ, of the other generals before briefed and that occurs by reproduced, who has a high professional level, to the being graduated university as mechanical engineering, in addition to being masters in sciences, when the facts did not toil in spite of being apt psychically for it and also, since although it has affectations in an arm and a hand consequences of an automobile accident, it physically do not incapacitate it to work, has developed an important number ago of years activities in competing organizations to the revolution, product of as it has been mentioned and alerted by officials of the Department of the Interior, without it had stopped of his to act and they did not build criminal records to him.

LEFT JOSE UBALDO HERNANDEZ of the other generals before briefed and who occur by reproduced who until year two thousands two belonged first a soon the organization of vanguard of Cuban youth and to the one of their working IASE, having occupied in the first of them responsibilities until the municipal level; who toiled until the month of August of two thousands the two in the Company of Commerce and Services of his municipality of residence where she occupied administrative responsibilities; later it gave to a turn its conduct since one integrated contrarrevolucionarias organizations, which motivated that until its wife and mother of its small children one separated of him; it has been alerted in numerous opportunities by his to act by members of the Department of the Interior and revolutionaries of his place of residence, but it has maintained the same position and activities and do not build criminal records to him.

HECTOR RAUL VALLE HERNANDEZ, of the other generals before briefed and that occurs by reproduced, for more than five years has not been having labor bond, being their last center of work the Painting Factory of the San jOse Municipality of the Lajas, where he confronted serious problems of absenteeism, cuIturaI has a low level having reached only a ninth degree of schooling, it is dedicated to the accomplishment of illicit businesses and to collaborate with the contrarrevolucionarias organizations to whom it belongs, it has a relieved standard of life, it does not belong to any political organization nor of masses and IE did not build criminal records.

SEGUNTDO BEING: That eI Court arrived at the conviction that was this and another one the form of occurrence of these facts not starting off of the ample arsenal of tests practiced in the act of oral judgment; they,en fundamental as far as the responsibility of defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ in these facts we considered declared by the witness the Luis Torres Armenteros who in spite of to have had relations of friendship with the same which they date from his earlier age referred to have been aware that he participated as much in activities of contrarrevolucionario character inside as outside his address, as well as saw in an opportunity a twenty-eight of two thousands the three January of a car with plate of the Office of Interests of the United States de Norte- America leaving him package recognizing that the defendant and showed books, pamphlets and documents that came to his name, although it said to not know his content, as well as the own one encausado IE showed a small radius that it had and it showed to him that they had given it in the own diplomatic seat of the United States of North America in Cuba so that it listened to the news that are trasmitían by badly called Martí Radio, to where it said that it also sent information to him like journalist, inviting it to listen to a information that reported first of May, although apparently the same one did not spread in that date.Everything which could be corroborated in the first place with the result of the occupation in the GALBAN address GUTIERREZ of an elevated number of magazines, pamphlets, and folletines that does not imprimían in Cuba and many of you exceed them in which it had received such in that it appeared like sender the SINA; among them corresponding to the four numbers or editions of the Magazine "Arriba River" in which the same one consists like Director and in which they appear published many articles to his name in spite of to have been able to know by it to have credited the Union of Journalists of Cuba that this defendant is not member of that organization; despite also one credited by Center of Monitoreo and Ana'lisis of the enemy radio pertaining to the Cuban Institute of radio and television that several information were paid between the month of January and the eight of March of two thousands the three by defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ to Martí Radio, being stated that one of the news that reported, that is the one of a supposed riot in the prison of Melena two was exaggerated; since the inmates who belonged to the Detachment number five of this Establishment named Alexis Ibañez Cagigal and Adrían Marichal Vera in the date in which he considers occurred the facts, that is the twenty-four of May of two thousands the two guaranteed that although it happened an incident because they did not wish that the secluded head of this detachment was transferred towards another prison in the rear area as they knew would occur, the certain thing is that the beds against the grates of the cells were only put and requested to speak with a head being taken care of their reclamations by General Jefe Nacional of Prisons, but being uncertain, that took place damages to the goods, short circuits and much less than they had to attend police, firemen and other Air Force to place, since there was no necessity of it by the little magnitude of the event, everything which allowed to know that the news that offered persecuted between some of their objectives to discredit to our institutions although they build in the summary other many of the information that offered and that they are of the same tenor.

On the other hand the own defendant doing right use that confers the Law to him admitted part of his responsibility in the facts, first because autotituló "independent" journalist, in spite of recognizing that he is graduated university and masters in sciences but of Mechanical Engineering; as well as to have developed contrarrevolucionarias activities from four and ninety October thousands nine hundred to thousands nine hundred ninety and six and as of August of two thousands the two, like to have belonged to several organizations of this same character like the "School of Engineers and Architects" and the "Cuba Commission", both registered according to did not credit the Director of the Registry of Associations of the Ministry of Justice of Cuba and in the last one of which it not only helped his creation but that it held positions "at national level. Also he recognized that he concurred to the Office of Interests of the United States of North America in Cuba and that sailed there by Internet, communicated with the apatrida Jadir Hernandez Hernandez - who credited itself that thousands two definitively left the country in eI two and received magazines, pamphlets and other publications; everything which could be corroborated with, the occupation of I number high of post office sent by Hernandez Hernandez to him, that in the fundamental thing they stimulated it to continue his "journalistic" work, the relations with the SINA and that guarantees that it received a payment by these "services" as well as the more or less direct or indirect entailment of the citizen Hernandez Hernandez to the American Cuban Foundation been in Miami and that the money which it sent came partly from them; as well as the one that it sent to him for the purchase of a maquina to write, Ia that will be occupied the defendant; Also others of the information brindadas' by the witness Torres Armenteros then not only was certain that acquired potentiality defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ paid information for badly called Martí Radio as he recognized it; but that the radius whereupon listened to them and that it was occupied to him and that appears photographed in fototabla that annexed and soon sent to expert work it was contacted is not commercialized in the commercial network of our country; it was in good technical state, tapeworm the high sensitivity superior to the one of any receiving radius, of that they are possible to be acquired in Cuba and the twenty frequencies used by the subversive transmitter of the south of Florida can be caught by him, listened to it; also they took care a programming to him of the so many times named emitting radial, containing the days and hour of trasmisión of its programming and posters and propagandas of contrarrevolucionario character that are annexed in fototabla, in addition to also obrantes photos in fototabla of its participation in subversive activities because aggressive texts against the figure of the Commander-in-Chief are appraised Fidel Castro Ruz. It was not managed to obtain more data on the relations of this defendant with Hernandez Hernandez and been contrarrevolucionarias organizations in the outside since as First Lieutenant referred the Instructor well Jose Luis Curbelo Cardentey who not only offered elements on his previous conduct, and the investigations practiced, but in addition the maintained one during the instructive process declaring that in him it did not cooperate effectively since it did not provide the key of his electronic mail reason why no, had access to its correspondence by via Internet that was the one that fundamentally maintained all the scaffolding of its relations.

In the case of the LEFT defendant HERNANDEZ the own witness Torres Armenteros demoted that she not only knew that had bonds of friendship with GALBAN GUTIERREZ but who it saw participate it next to that in contrarrevolucionarias activities, which will be ratified by also the witnesses Rene Rivero Páez and Héctor Bacallao Diaz, both neighbors of this defendant, the first member of the vanguard organization, but that in addition is the secretary of the nucleus of retired of the zone of residence of the defendant and the second honorary civil employee of the DSE, that in addition asserted that many of those activities were celebrated in the own building of the defendant and who they sometimes required it by this acting then it, enervaba to the neighbors; both guaranteed that the same one had left its labor bond and to have seen the first in an opportunity and other know at least by reference that in several occasions was visited by a vehicle the SINA to leave him to correspondence and packages to the defendant; as well as that was of the knowledge of all its fellow citizens that listened badly called Martí Radio, in addition that spread its ideas; also Bacallao Diaz, said to have read the Bulletin "Arriba River" and salary whereas many news that appeared in were reported by the defendant and that was tendenciosas. All these allegations were recognized by the defendant who according to criterion spilled by the Instructor Curbelo Cardentey was of the defendant whom he more cooperated with the process of Instruction, although almost all the elements offered already were of the knowledge of the DSE, since time took after its activities by which it clarified had been mentioned and alerted, paying to it neglectful attention.

The witness Pedro Piloto also neighboring LombiIlo of LEFT HERNANDEZ declared to have known which its decontamination of the organization of vanguard of the class had requested, Cuban worker and the accomplishment directly, of at least one contrarrevolucionaria activity in his address where she considered that they were irrespetando, the Cuban flag, as well as that in that own date she made in his presence manifestations of subversive character since she referred that "… at some moment they would take the streets…"

Also he guaranteed to have participated like witness in the registry that practiced to him in the address where a radius took care to him small the one that it described, and is of the same identical mark and to occupied to defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ and also has the same characteristics of power, many books and a poster that said to civic library rural "Sebastián Arcs", which appears shaped in photos that accompany and a little flag by the United States de Norte- America everything what agreed with demoted by the witness the Pedro Pablo Abreu Garci'a who was honorary civil employee of the DSE; being stated by certifico emitted by the Municipal Direction of Culture of Güines that the defendant was not technician of libraries.

Special meaning had intervention in act of judgment oral of Director of Higiene and Epidemiología of Municipality of Guinea, who appeared like witness in order to deny one of information that she paid defendant LEFT HERNANDEZ, since although she clarified that he is frequent by the infrastructure of the supply, of networks and sewage systems of the Municipality, that with certain regularity take place hepatitis buds is always of the "A" and not of the "C" as the defendant informed, evidently being manipulated the information since first, she is viral, much more benign, she has a shorter period of incubation and is hydric his trasmisión (water, tinkles and fecales lees), in addition to which its evolution is satisfactory almost always; second on the contrary trasmite by (the blood bovine. Injections, tattoos, etc.), have a reserved prognosis and evolve to the cronicidad, existing therefore many possibilities of decease; that certainly at the time in that the news offered it had in bud of hepatitis "To", but only two hundred ninety were and six and not more than the five hundred patients and the fact it had happened to nine kilometers of where it was briefed. Everything what in addition it appeared certificate in the summary.

Also the defendant recognized made work "independent" journalist, although avaIó by the Union of Journalists of Cuba that the same one was not member of that organization building certifico of the Center of Monitoreo and Ana'lisis of the enemy radio assigned to the ICRT that guarantees that of January to the eight of March of two thousands the three paid to Martí Radio information which they were accompanied, but in addition did not have qualification at least, because schooling degree only counted on twelve; to have belonged to the organization "Cuba Commission" where it carried out responsibilities at municipal level, as well as to have received from the Office of interests bibliography for the library that created and to sail in Internet in this seat, in addition to by this route communicating with Hernandez Hernandez, everything what was avaIado with the occupation of a poster made by members of that organization who guaranteed the Director of the registry of Associations of the Ministry of Justice was illegal and that appear in photo together with the summary; as far as the bibliographical material occupied agencies CUBANACAN, world-wide mail, CUBAPACK and CUBAPOSTAL they certificaron to it not to have sent them and in addition they build occupied you exceed them in which some came from them and whose sender is the SINA; as well as it also builds certificate by the Unit of Protection to diplomatic seats that the defendant concurred thirty November of two the thousands one to the department of Press and Culture of this diplomatic seat and the seventeen of January, the eighteen of November, ten seventeen and thirty of December all of two thousands the two, and the twenty-four and first of February of two thousands the three to sail by Internet.

As much LEFT HERNANDEZ as VALLE HERNANDEZ caused the voluntary delivery of several radii that had given.

Stirring and very eloquent they were the declarations of the Yamila spouses Reyes Perez and Noel Arcadio Montero, whom during ten and eight years respectively they penetrated the grupúsculos to which they belonged defendant GALBAN GUTIERREZ and LEFT HERNANDEZ by directions of the DSE and narrated the activities by developed its responsibilities within the same ones, the financing that received from the FNCA and the moving bodies that they persecuted.
