U.S. Congressmen push for probe against FBI actions in Puerto Rico

House Representatives Jose Serrano, Lydia Velazquez, and Luis Gutierrez are urging for federal hearings and an investigation of an FBI counterterrorist operation against a Puerto Rican pro-independence group. The FBI raided several houses and businesses on February 10^th and accused the People’s Boricua Army (a.k.a. Los Macheteros) of planning bombings and attacks in Puerto Rico. FBI agents shot and killed a leader of Los Macheteros in September 2005.
