Allegation by  v Senior Cuban Diplomat
Concerning the Role of Cuban Exiles  in
the Assassination of President Kennedy

LA/CO/258-77 Dated 3 November 1977


      1L  Reference  is made to the referent memc-randum which
 . ported a statem.ent made by a senior Cuban diplomat abroad
 alleging that Cuban  exiles such as DIAZ Lan (fniu (sic)
 and others had been  involved in the assassination of
 President John F.  Kennedy. te  have received nothing
 further to date  to supplenent this information.

      2.  DDO records  indicate that Pedro DIAZ L-nz, and
 his broklrer.MIarcos DIA Lan:. formerly Chief and Deputy
 Chief, respectively, of the Cuban Revoluitionary Air FLrce,
 entered the U.S. from Cuba as exiles in mid-1959.   Since
 that time both DIAZ Lan: brothers reportedly have  been
 closely associated with, and involved in numerous  activities
 with, Frank STURGIS (aka FIORI.NI) of Watergate fame.  Al-
 though  he individual allegedifinolvFd   ih-the-assina
 tion of rresident Kennedy could he either of  the DIAZ Lanzt
 brothers, it is. noted that the. name Pedvo -DIAZ 1anz had
 been cited in recent newspaper items in this connection.
 We refer specifically to the New fork Daily News article
 of 20 September 1977 entitled' Ex-Spy Says She Drove  to
 Dallas Vith Osw-ald & Kennedy 'Assassin Squad', a copy
 of which is attached.  The Agency assisted in the evacua-
 tion of Marcos from Cuba to Miami. and Pedro entered the
 U.S. on his own.  Although both were debriefed by the
-Agency, there is no indication that they were ever con-
sidered Agency  assets.                     .
