Cuba: Another foreign exchange stunt?

Reports are increasing of hair being cut from women's heads to supply a clandestine market in human hair.

One of the latest victims didn't realize her hair had been cut while traveling on a crowded bus until she got home where her mother asked what she had done to her hair.

Women with long hair are being advised to wear it in styles not readily accessible to scissors or to cover it.

Rumors circulating in Havana tell of a student whose throat was cut before her hair was removed.

The hair is said to be sold for used to make wigs and hair pieces.

Caught up in the throes of a dying regime, anything is possible. I mean, Chavez can only prop up his mentor Castro for so long.
