Warren Chief, Latin America Division SUBJECT: REFERENCE: . SLHORIZON-1 Report Mentioning Cuban Minister7Counsellor Statement on the Assassination of President Kennedy LA/CO/235-77 Dated 30.September 19.77 .1. The referent memorandum reported information from a ZRWAHOO intelligence report of a. statement made by the Minister-Counsellor (MC) of the Cuban Embassy in Kingston, Jamaica, on 24 -September 1977, that Cuban exiles such as DIAZ Lan (fnu) (sic) and others had been involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. We believe that this could refer either to Pedro DIAZ Lanz, or his brother Marces DIAZ Lanz, formerly Chief and Deputy Chief, respectively, of the Cuban Revolutionary-Air Force. Both entered the U.S. from Cuba as exiles in mid-1959. Since that time the DIAZ Lanz brothers reportedly have been closely associated with, and involved in numerous activities with, Frank STURGIS (aka FIORINI) of Watergate fame. The Agency assisted in .the evacuation of Marcos, and Pedro entered the U.S. on his own. Although both were debriefed by the.Agency, there is no indication that they were.ever considered Agency assets. 2. queried source for further infor- mation as promised in paragraph 4 *of the reference. The source said that the MC referred'to the Kennedy assassina- tion during a pep talk to party members to maintain good security. Further, that the MC said that.recent infor- mation had arrived implicating DIAZ Lan (fnu) (sic), former air -force officer, in the Kennedy assassination but did not mention.any other Cuban exiles by name or give any further details. Although the MC did not identify the source of his -information, source had the impression that the information might have been included in a cable from the Cuban Ministry.of Foreign Affairs. The source is unable to elicit further information from the MC without jeopardizing his security. . aymond A. Warren .Raymond A. Warren cc: IG Staff A r N 0 .0.
