Rome 92-68 For the Bureau's information, Italian authorities do not record the arrival of an individual nor do they have a record of the individual's departure from Italy, This practice was abolished about eighteen months ago. The Italian Government does, however, require all foreigners to exhibit their passports when they take lodging at a hotel, rooming house, or pensione. Pertinent information is ex- tracted and forwarded to the Foreigners Office in Rome, Italy. @&)(u) in the case of ANNALORO, special precautions have been taken to flag his departure from Italy. Pertinent data. concerning subject has been furnished to all sea ports and airports, and should subject attempt to leave Italy, this office has arranged to be advised by expeditious means. As. the Bureau is aware, the Rome Office has not received any | information from Italian police which would indicate ANNALORO . has taken lodging at a public place in Italy since October, 1963. It can be assumed, therefore, that if subject aaa| is in Italy, he is lodging at a private residence with friends possibly under an assumed name. GI) | the Rome Office, through the Central Bureau, Criminal Division, Italian National Police, Rome, has alerted all police districts to be on the lookout for subject and, , in addition, airports at Fiumicino, Rome, and Malpensa, Milan, | and sea ports in Naples and Genoa have also been alerted regarding subject. It would seem logical, therefore, that should the Rome Office receive information that subject is ; _ at a departure point in Italy about to depart for the U. S., we should permit him to depart for the U. S. where he can be arrested on arrival rather than taking the circuitous route of having Italian police detain him in order that a representa- tive of the U. S. Embassy, Rome, can limithis passport for ~ | | direct and immediate return to the U. $.}.In this connection, =| as was set forth in Rome cable of 11/1/63, Doctor ARISTIDE . MANOPULO, Central Bureau, Criminal Division, Italian National Police, Rome, has informed this office that should ANNALORO'S passport be limited for return to the U. S. only, he can re- | fuse to leave Italy and the Italian Government cannot compel him to leave as this would be extradition in disguise. 1(@-1 (uw) a | Docld: 32299690 Page 4

He stated he was a very good friend of Salvatore and about ten years ago was godfather to his child, Gina.
