CIENFUEGOS, January 9 (Alina Gonzalo, Cuba-Verdad) – Two foreign
tourists and two Cubans died in an automobile wreck here at the end of December;
the foreigners’ bodies were placed in caskets, the Cubans were thrown over
the caskets to be transported.
Passersby were visibly bothered by the different treatment accorded the
bodies. A passing bus driver yelled out of the window of his bus: "Hey, are
there no caskets for Cubans?"
The accident took place at kilometer 165 of the national highway when a
tourist taxi, carrying an Italian man and his son, struck another car belonging
to the "La Plata" cooperative, in which were traveling a Cuban man and
his wife.
