CONTINUATION OFDISPATCHa fairly obvious maneuver, as if trying towardsthe Embassy but at a very slow pace. It showed interest in the showwindows. A few minutes later, the "friend" started me briskly walking towardsReforma and la Fraga, which latter street he crossed, eventually turningleft and crossing the Reforma itself! I did a little counter-surveillanceand appeared somewhere down Avenida M Morelos. My "surveillant" was about30 years old. dark tan skin, youth-ful looking, well-dressed in a dark suit and slightly nervous in his actions.While the whole matter could be legitimate business, his action in ducking into thestore, not just turning in as if engaged in legitimate business, made mesuspect him all the more. If he were really a surveillant, he must havebeen on LITAU-1 rather than myself, since the Station had been alerted asto possible surveillance and I was checking myself".D. Jeremy L. NIARCOSJeremy L. NIARCOS reported sometime in May, 1962 that he hadspotted what definitely seemed like a one-man surveillance on him. Sincehe is presently on home leave the submission of a detailed report on theincident will be deferred until his return to duty.E. Arnold P. AREHART/LIENVOY"On Friday 15 June 1962, at approximately 0930, the conciergenoticed two men standing on the corner of Tonala and Chihuahua, whoseemed to have an unusual interest in the activity of the L.P. Theywere standing directly across the street from the L.P. One of themen was tall and thin with a mustache, well dressed and appeared tobe about 30 or 35 years of age. The other was a short fat man andwore a white shirt coat of the Veracruz type and appeared to be around50 years of age. They stood on the corner of Tonala and Chihuahua for aboutan hour and showed a great deal of interest in the activity of our building.Around 1030 hours the tall men left and later returned in a 1953 Fiatmodel 1900, with a brown body and a beige top with District Plates number21-73-26. Both of these men then proceeded to observe our installationfrom the car, and from time to time appeared to be making notes on the comingsand goings of the installation, as well as making notes on the cars used bythe personnel of the L.P. At about 1145 hours AREHART left the L.P. tomake a phone call and to see if any attempt would be made to follow any oneleaving the building. No attempts were made to follow AREHART, however, hisactions were observed from the car through the rear view mirror. UponAREHART's return to the building it was noticed that the men appeared tobe making notes in a small notebook. Finally, around 1330 the tall mandrove off in the car and the fat one took up a new position, about 50 to100 feet down the block on Chihuahua where he could observe the front doorof the LP. Around 1500 when the first shift was leaving, LIENVOY 16 leftto go to lunch and was followed down Chihuahua. On spotting the surveillancehe returned to the office. Just as he returned to the office LIENVOY 2returned to the office and was told of the incident. LIENVOY 2 and LIENVOY16immediately approached the fat man (who had also returned to his formerposition), and asked him to explain his action of the day. They alsoasked him to identify himself. He showed them a driver's license withthe name MARIANO VERA GONZALES. This information was checked at theDepartment of Traffic and found to be the license of another person. Atthis time it was decided to establish a stake out at the Traffic Departmentin order to discover and identify anyone who might show an interest in thenames and addresses of the cars used by our installation. On the 16th ofJune, Unit "C" (Victor) informed LIENVOY 2 that around 1300 hours an oldfriend of his, Guillermo MUNOZ SAMANO, an agent of the SecretService of the Police Headquarters, showed up and said that he was lookingfor a Mister IROU in order to obtain some information about the owner ofa car with District Plates 723 (LIBYA -2). Victor suggested that theycheck the files for the information, however, the information was notavailable. During their conversation Guillermo MUNOZ stated that heworked as a supervisor of the medical services of the Central Departmentand showed Victor his credentials signed by Dr. Julian GARZA TREVINA.He also said that he had another job at the Health Department.While they were talking, another agent passed by and asked MUNOZ to give him his
