Per referent request, we have conducted a review of our files on incidents and individuals mentioned in the report given by Fidel Castro to Senator McGovern. This memorandum contains the results of our traces on the alleged assassination plots and ~~. the Cuban individuals mentioned in the report. It must be borne in mind that our files are keyed primarily to names of individuals and not by incidents or plots, thereby making the retrieval process difficult.

14-00000 S. Mid 1965 and May 1966. While some of the individuals were considered for use by this and other USG agencies, they were not ultimately employed by CIA and available records indicate we were not connected with them at the time the incidents occurred. (1) Antonio CUESTA del Valle. There is a 201 file on the individual. He was considered for use by CIA in early 1961 as a crewnan for a CIA vessel involved in maritime operations. The file does nct reveal whether he was actually used but all interest in him was terminated in mid 1961. He was subsequently reported to be a leader of "Comandos L'', a Miami-based anti-Castro exile organization. He was captured in May 1966 after being wounded when his group attempted to land a team of infiltrators near Havana. CIA had no connection with the operation and the file does not confirm that he was involved in an assassination attempt against Castro. (2) Eugenio Enrique ZALDIVAR Cadenas. There is a 201 file on the individual, indicating an interest in hin in April 1966 by another USG agency. His file was closed on 7 June 1966. He is identified as a member of "Comandos L". No further information is available. (3) Sandelio Herminio DIAZ Garcia. There is a 201 file on the individual. The file was opened in September 1957 because of his involvement with Honduran and Costa Rican revolutionary activities. He was debriefed by a CIA case officer in September 1963 as a Cuban refugee. At that time he claimed to be in contact with anti-Castro groups in Cuba and stated that he wanted to assassinate Castro. He indicated his intention to return to Cuba immediately. We dropped contact with him at that time and never did have an operational relationship with him. In January 1966 he was reported to be Involved in a plan by a Cuban emigre group to infiltrate Cuba for the purpose of assassinating Castro. On 30 May 1966 he was identified by Radio Havana as a member of a commando group killed while trying to land on the island. However, in August 1973 an individual with the same name and year of birth was reportedly involved in narcotics trafficking in Costa Rica. A Cuban exile source stated that he believed subject to be identical with the nercotics trafficker in Costa Rica. There is no further information to substantiate this. 12
14-00000 RA Lane (4) Armando ROMERO Martinez. There is a 201 file on the individual. Uis file was opened on 4 December 1963 in response to an indication of interest in him by another USG agency. The relationship with him was termin- ated following his arrest in Miami in January 1964 for illegal use of narcotics and possession of explosives and automatic weapons. 4 T. 17 March 1967. A review of Files does not confirm that CIA was involved in this incident. (1) Felix ASENCIO Trejo. There is a 201 file on the individual which indicates that a POA was granted on 4 March 1964 since subject was of interest to us as a possible canijidate for paramilitary operations against Cuba. The POA was cancelled on 20 August 1964 with no indication that subject was ever actually used operationally. (2) Wilfredo MARTINEZ Diazs We have no positively identifiable information on this individual. _ (3) Lazaro Gustavo ARECES Alvarez. There is a 201 file on the individual which indicates that a POA was granted 7 July 1964 for intended use as a seaman aboard a CIA vessel involved in maritime operations. The POA was cancelled 8 September 1964 with the indication that the subject was not hired. Us. 1971. There is nothing in files reviewed to indicate that we had any coatact with the subject mentioned in the report or were involved in the alleged incident. (1) Jesus DOMINGUEZ Benitez. No CIA traces on subject were found. 2. It is noted that the above totals twenty-one separate analytical sections whereas there are actually twenty-four alleged assassination attempts. This is due to the fact that the analyses of the tyo Incidents of 26 July 1961 have been combined since they both occurred on the sane day and were allegedly executed by the same group. The treatment of the alleged June 1965 poisoning attempt is part of the analysis of the mid 1964 incident because the alleged pepetrator is relaté. to the group described therein. The incident described in Castro's report as mid 1965 has been combined with the analysis of the 1966 incident since both were allegedly carried out by the same group, 13 wh
14-00000 whey? | siger 3. In summary, of the twenty-four incidents described in Castro's report, the files reviewed indicate that CIA had no involvement in fifteen of the cases; i.e., never had any contact with the individuals mentioned or was not in contact with then at the time of the allered incidents. In the remaining nine cases, CIA had operational relationships with some of the individuals mentioned but not for the purpose of assassination. It is noted that one case is currently being reviewed by a SSC staffimenber for selection of documents to be sanitized. This case (Rolando CUBELA Secades) was not reviewed in connection with this memoranidua. Of the twenty- three cases reviewed, nothing has been found to substantiate the charges that CIA directed its agents to assassinate Castro. Raymond A.
