Cuban Revolutionary Fidel Castro Dies Aged 90

Fidel Castro, Cuba's former president and leader of the Communist revolution, has died aged 90, his brother has said.

“The commander in chief of the Cuban revolution died at 22:29 hours this evening (03:29 GMT Saturday),” President Raul Castro said.

Fidel Castro ruled Cuba as a one-party state for almost 50 years before Raul took over in 2008.

His supporters said he had given Cuba back to the people. But he was also accused of suppressing opposition, BBC reported.
