Cuba Convicts U.S. Aid Worker
BBC reports:
The trial of US aid worker Alan Gross for crimes against the state in Cuba has ended, with the verdict yet to be formally announced.
There was earlier confusion over the wording that concluded the trial, with suggestions Mr Gross was convicted.
The US diplomatic mission on the island confirmed no verdict had been declared.
Mr Gross, 61, was arrested in December 2009 accused of setting up illegal internet connections in Cuba under a programme funded by the US government.
Prosecutors have been seeking a 20-year jail term.
The US has warned that there can be no further easing of relations until he is released.
On Friday US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton again demanded his unconditional release.
"He's been unjustly jailed for far too long," Mrs Clinton said.
