The Bureau got a copy of Drug Enforcement

living in Cuernavaca, etc.

The reference to Can Can 1r

the last paragraph is believed to refer to Cancun, a new

resort under development in the territory Quintana Roo!

This is a development by the Mexican Government

and it is not known what the MC GUIRE sisters might have to

do with this development.

In addition, Drug Enforcement Administration Office,

Mexico City; reported 5-8-74, information from an usually

reliable source that subject was residing and spending some

time in Oaxaca, Oaxaca,

Mexico.

Supposedly his attorney, JORGE

CASTILLO, was

associated

with an Italian national, DINO MARIO

CARDELLA-TURBIA, resident at Calle Amapola 203, Colonia Reforma,

Oaxaca, owner of the "El Padrino" bar, Calzada Heroes de

Chapultepec 822, Oaxaca, Oaxaca, Mexico. They considered that

this might be identical
