resident
CIENFUEGOS, Cuba, September 19 (Luis Miguel
González Leyva, Jagua Press / www.cubanet.org)
- Customs officials at the Jaime González
Airport in Cienfuegos last week seized 80
pounds of goods from a Miami resident and
fined her. Marisolina Hernández, who lives
in Miami, brought 150 pounds of goods, including
clothing, medicine and eye glasses, for
friends and relatives in Cuba. "Great was
my surprise, pain and indignation when the
functionaries broke open my packages and
told me that I had violated the law, as
the limit is 68 pounds per passenger plus
an additional 20 pounds on which duty has
to be paid in dollars," she said. "They
acted like savage animals."
