The Secret Life Of Fidel Castro @ Univision WLTV-TV.

For the first time ever, South Florida will get an inside look at Cuba’s most guarded location, Punto Cero (“Point Zero”) — Fidel Castro’s family compound.

The ten-part news segment which began airing on Monday, November 11th, and runs for two weeks, reveals Castro at home on a regular Sunday with his family and portrays the revolutionary leader as the world has never seen him before, in his carefully secluded family compound with wife, Dalia Soto del Valle, four of his children and three of his grandchildren. The video, which was shot by Castro’s very own children, was taken out of Cuba by a friend of the woman whose testimony carries Univision through this powerful series. The woman, Dashiell Torralba, is the former sweetheart of Antonio Castro Soto del Valle, a Cuban orthopedic surgeon and one of Castro’s five children with Dalia Soto del Valle. Interviewed by Univision 23 reporter Mario Vallejo, Torralba speaks candidly about the Castro family and her two-year relationship with Antonio Castro, which came to an abrupt end through the direct intervention of Soto del Valle. The video was inadvertently left at Torralba’s home by Antonio Castro after the breakup and she hung onto it as her ultimate “tool for revenge” against the family.

According to WLTV Univision 23 reporter, Mario Vallejo, “The video is only the first part of an expose that is sure to shake the island of Cuba to its very foundation.” Vallejo, who led Univision’s investigation on Castro’s secret life and interviewed Dashiell Torralba, stated that the series will uncover the most carefully guarded secrets of the Castro regime. “Viewers will not only see images of Castro that have never before been seen but they will also learn appalling details of the Cuban leader’s illicit undertakings,” says Vallejo.

“Univision 23 has shattered bounds by exposing what is perhaps the most carefully guarded family compound in the world,” he adds.

The testimony provided by Torralba includes a hand-drawn map of the Castro compound that Univision 23 sources have been able to corroborate through the use of satellite imagery. Torralba, who is no longer in Cuba, was interviewed by Univision’s Vallejo in an undisclosed location outside the United States, where she presently resides. The segment will air weekdays on the 6:00 and 11:00 p.m. editions of Noticias 23, WLTV Univision 23’s award-winning newscast.
