Cuban Migrants Describe Ordeal With Smugglers.

LAHT/
Four men who tried to escape Cuba by boat, described their rough treatment in Granma, the official state newspaper. The four were in a group of 14 that left Cuba on a motorboat in September and were tortured by the traffickers so their relatives in the U.S. would pay the $10,000 fee to leave the island.
“What happened to them in the hands of their captors will show others the cost of trusting their future to people who only care about dollars."
