Document approved by the Cuban Ministry, in part (translated): "As an act of approval and facilitator of the excesses and crimes committed by the Tyranny, this law decrees No. 436 of the 1st of October, 1952, published in the official Gazette on the day of October 4…established a regime of unjustifiable exception, made it so the judges and courts of the Republic could not show faith in the Armed Forces to enjoy freedom, in the case that this correspondence is in accord with the valid legislation, when the same are accused and processed for incriminating the commission under penalty of law by a punitive act that results in arrest or imprisonment…The provisional revolutionary government is interested in the abolition of the privileges that were created with the sole purpose facilitating the impunity of those crimes, tortures and other acts of violence that were perpetrated and realized to suffocate true heroic revolutionary action…The Cuban Ministry has approved and I have sanctioned the following: Law No. 134. Article 1: Revoke the Law No. 436…Article 2: Revoke all laws, decrees, rulings and legal dispositions that oppose this law. For now: I order that this law be executed in full."
