CUBANS WAVE FLAGS DEMANDING THE RETURN OF BOAT BOY ELIAN GONZALEZ.
A Cuban youth shouts slogans as thousands of Cubans wave flags demanding the repatriation of 6-year-old shipwrecked boy Elian Gonzalez, in Havana January 15. The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) ruled earlier this month that Elian belonged with his father and should be returned by January 14, but that deadline was extended following a legal challenge by a Miami family court. Elian has been in Florida since November 25 when he was picked up at sea by U.S. fishermen after surviving the capsizing of a boat full of illegal Cuban migrants.
