Rolando Masferrer Rojas is a former

Cuban senator from the time of the Batista

regime.

He is reportedly heading a Haition

invasion attempt, which he says will

inuolve some 300 Cubans.

He has told

fellow conspirators that the central

Intelligence Agency is backing the venture.

Howeuer, the Central Intelligence Agency

has steadfastly denied this allegation.

The Customs Bureau has Masferrer

and his co-conspirators under current

active investigation and we are maintain-

ing close liaison with Customs.

We are

keeping the Department aduised of all

developments in the matter.

We are not conducting active investio

gation in this case.

However,

our liani

informant is very close to the situation

and reports current developments as they

occur within the conspiracy.
