Expose the authorship of two political murders

An El Nuevo Dia editorial
Every day that goes by and justice is deprived of information that is vital to solve the murder of Carlos Muñiz Varela, committed 35 years ago, is a day lost for democracy and the historic memory of a people who must learn who the assassins were, what institutions sheltered them, and what guarantee exists that an act like that never happens again.
Despite the constant pleas of the family of the murdered youth and the Department of Justice of Puerto Rico, which for years have asked the federal agencies to deliver to the local authorities the inculpatory documents they possess, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has just refused to do so, arguing that it is a matter that’s “still” confidential.
To begin with, the fact that the United States refuses to provide the information it has about an unpunished crime is inconsistent with the effort that itself demands from other nations to assist in the solution of crimes and terrorist attacks.
The assassination of Muñiz Varela, like that of Santiago Mari Pesquera, son of pro-independence leader Juan Mari Bras, had all the characteristics of an attack plotted in the heart of hatred and intolerance.
Two young lives were cut short not only as punishment for their ideas but also in an attempt to terrify the rest of the population and send a message of what might happen to those who held ideas similar to those of the young men who were killed. That is terrorism, in its purest meaning.
