Dear Die Scinartz:

Reference is made to a honorendun fron the lassport Office dated

July 29, 1964, requesting that considevation be given to the possible prose

cution of Antulio Ortix Ramirez under the provisions of 8 U.S.C, 1185(1)

relative to uneuthoriaod travel to Cabe.

A review of the files reflects that on May 1, 1961, Ramirez,

at gunpoint, hijacked

a National Airlines planc over Merathon, Florida,

and forced the pilot to fly to Cuba. Subsequently, the plane and its

Passengers vere permitied to cctur to the United States but Romire

renained

in Gube,

of this daie all available evidence indicates nat

he still is residing within Cuba.

On June 28, 1902, a Federal gand jury at Miami, Florida, seturned

an Indiethent charging Raniren wich assauli, transporting a kidnapped person,

and crooportation oi a scolen ventele, in violation of i8 U.S.C. 113, 1201,

and 2312.

A lookout notice has.

been placed wich the Immigration and Naturali

zation Scivice so that he may be apprehended upon his return to the United

SLATES.

In light di the offenses charged in the presently outstanding

indictment, it is our opinion that no practical purpose would be served by

iniLlating prosecution against him at this time for a vivlation of 8 U.S.C.

Sincerely,

Assistant Actorney General
