Spanish court rejects lawsuit against Fidel Castro

The Committee of Help to Dissent 2506 accused Castro and Cienfuegos of crimes against humanity.
The complaint was based on the deaths of nine participants in the US-fuelled Bay of Pigs invasion attempt in 1961. The nine were caught and died of suffocation inside a lorry transporting them to a prison in Havana.
The dissidents accused Cienfuegos, who was also travelling on the lorry, and Castro of responsibility for the prisoners` fate.
In 2005, the National Court rejected a similar complaint against Castro, Cienfuegos, Castro`s brother Raul and diplomat Carlos Amat.
