Falcons from Homestead Air
Force Reserve Base escorted
the plane to Key West, said
Maj. Ed Thomas of the North
American Aerospace Defense
Command.
A statement from Cuban
authorities blamed the hijacking
on what Havana says is the lax
treatment of six men charged in
the March 19 hijacking.
Jimenez, the U.S. attorney,
was adamant that all the
alleged hijackers would be
fully prosecuted.
“We are not lenient on ter
rorists and those who commit
crimes of violence,” Jimenez
said. “If anyone, including the
Cuban government, thinks
we’re going to be lenient on this
defendant because he is Cuban,
they are wrong.”
The suspects in the March 19
hijacking pleaded innocent
Tuesday to federal air piracy
and air piracy conspiracy
charges, which carry maximum
prison sentences of 20 years to
life. They were granted bond,
but prosecutors appealed that
decision and they remain in jail.
Six crew members and 25
passengers — all Cubans except
for one Italian — were on the
earlier flight when knife-wield
ing hijackers took it over.
Sixteen of those aboard chose to
return to Cuba, the Italian was
released in the United States
and the rest opted to stay in the
United States.
