Che was not a Cuban
by Amit Mukhopadhyay on Apr 16, 2007 04:03 PM   Permalink

In the article "IITians in UP Poll Fray", the first line has a factual error: Che Guevara was not a Cuban. He was born an Argentinian and died in an encounter in Bolivia. He of course played an important role, in his maverick style, in the communist revolution in Cuba under the leadership of Fidel Castro in 1959, but that does not make Che a Cuban. He was an Argentinian.

I request a reply to amitm04@rediffmail.com.
