30000 Hungarians deported to Soviet Union says revolt witness
A Hungarian refugee testified before the Senate Internal Security subcommittee that about 30,000 Hungarians were deported to the Soviet Union since the revolt began seven weeks earlier. He based his figure on talks with railway workers and deportees who escaped. He described torture by the secret police and said many Hungarians oppose the Russians though few communists remain.
