Batswana students bullied in Trinidad

That at least is the image of the islands on postcards and in travel magazines.
However a group of Batswana Medicine and Dentistry students at the University of West Indies in Trinidad are finding out the real Caribbean islands.  The students who stay in an all-male hostel known as Canada Hall have been getting what they call 'military' treatment at the hands of a 'rowdy, rough and sadist mob' of senior students.

"When I first arrived here it never dawned on me that it would be here that I would hit the ground with my chest, my hands held backwards. I had to roll over in mud. I have been interrogated late into the night. I have had buckets of water poured over my face," says a student who arrived in Trinidad a few weeks ago.
