Venezuela's President Hugo Chávez asked again his US counterpart Barack Obama to hand over Venezuela alleged terrorist Luis Posada Carriles, who has been accused of masterminding the bombing of a Cuban airliner with 73 people. This terrorist action was carried out 33 years ago.

"Well, Obama, send us the terrorist. You should observe the law and international agreements," Chávez said during a Cabinet meeting broadcasted by state-run TV network Venezolana de Televisión (VTV).

Meanwhile, confidential official documents that were declassified and released on Tuesday revealed that Posada Carriles volunteered and worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to spy on radical Cuban exiles in Miami, AFP reported.
