Political police mistreat rafters returned
by the U.S. Coast Guard
HAVANA, October 14 (Amarilis
C. Rey, Cuba Verdad / www.cubanet.org) -
René Soto Delgado and his wife, Ledeyse,
who have tried twice to leave Cuba illegally,
say political police seized their personal
documents, including their identity cards.
The couple and their 5-year-old son were
returned to Cuba October 3 by the U.S. Coast
Guard after being caught at sea trying to
reach the United States.
They were stopped by border police in March
of this year before they were able to put
to sea. They were fined 3,000 pesos after
that attempt.
Under an agreement between the United States
and Cuba, rafters returned to the island
cannot be mistreated by the government.
