MIAMI (CBS4)

He's the accused plotter of the bombing of a 1976 Cuban passenger plane, but he's also a former CIA operative living freely in Miami. Venezuela is once again renewing its efforts to extradite Luis Posada Carriles to stand trial there.


Posada Carriles is accused of the 1976 bombing of a Cuban passenger plane and killing all 73 people on board.

Jose Pertierra, a lawyer for the Venezuelan government in Washington, says a 3-1/2-year-old extradition request for 80-year-old Luis Posada Carriles will be reactivated and presented to the U.S. State Department in the coming days.

Pertierra says President Hugo Chavez has signed off on diplomatic guarantees that the Cuban-born Posada would have his safety ensured and receive a fair trail if extradited.

Posada, a naturalized Venezuelan, now lives freely in Miami. He once held a prominent role in Venezuela's secret police.
