Hostages chained by the neck, slept in mud
2008-07-06
  • For punishment, hostages chained at the neck 24-hours-a-day, sometimes for years
  • Food was scarce; they slept outside, often in torrential rain and mud
  • Sometimes the hostages were forced to march without boots
  • Betancourt: I wouldn't treat animals or even a plant the way we were treated
