PG 92-228 ~ ZERVOS added that approximately three months ago while in Washington, D. C., to visit a friend in the Greek Diplomatic Service at the Greek Embassy, he stopped at the Department of Justice to say hello to MR, ANDERSON, but he was not in Washington at the time. ZERVOS said that upon his return to Pittsburgh, Pa., he received a personal note from MR, ] ANDERSON apologizing for his absence and inviting ZERVOS to make it a point to telephone him for lunch when he visited Washington again. ; In the process of developing ZERVOS as an informant, he has been instructed and reminded periodically to consider his relationship with Special Agents of the FBI. confidential and to furnish information only to the Bureau. Nevertheless, it seems reasonable to assume that because of the closeness of their alleged friendship, ZERVOS might disclose his informant status to MR. ANDERSON and furnish information regarding the activities of the MANNARINO brothers on his next trip to Washington. Consequently, in order to avoid a situation of potential embarrassment, ZERVOS is being deleted as a PCI of this office. In the future, information will be accepted from ZERVOS on.a voluntary basis and he will be considered a confidential source, . a) -2. | DocId: 32303029 Page 4
