Not with standing the failure of the Cuban Government formally to guarantee safety for the “safe-havened,” and notwithstanding that Cuban security officials interrogated all “safehavened” adult males leaving the Interests Section, the “safe-havened”persons departed from the Interests Section in small groups over a period of several months, on the basis of individual judgments as to the risk involved. No case was brought to the attention of the Interests Section, however, in which any of the former “safe-havened” persons had been tortured, imprisoned, or refused permission to depart from Cuba.
