Grenada: Busts of Maurice Bishop, others killed in 1983 coup to be installed for National Heroes Day

Grenadian Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell says the government will be working with a Cuban foundation for sculptured busts of former Prime Minister Maurice Bishop and other people who were killed on October 19, 1983, during a coup.

Mr Mitchell says the plan is for the busts to be installed as part of activities to commemorate National Heroes Day on October 19 this year.

Grenada observed National Heroes Day for the first time last year, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Mr. Bishop.
