            The  following concerns most  recent developments
 in connection with  our investigation  into the assassination,

of  Senator Robert  F. Kennedy.
            A  report from CIA, a copy  of which was furnished
,the White House,  indicates a Libyan attorney.. Abdussalam Nafa,  6sl
has  offered  to defend Sirhan Bishara  Sirhan.  According to
these  accounts,  Nafa has offered his  services free of charge
and  suggested  that if it were not possible  for him to defend
Sirhan  in  court he be authorized to select  an attorney who -is
a  member of  the California Bar Association.  .Nafa has been
issued  a  three-month visito s visa by  our embassy in Tripoli
and  is described  by CIA as having been  active in the defense
of  the Arab  nationalist movement  in Tripoli earlier this year.
Based  on available  information he  is unidentifiable in Bureau
files.

             Our Los Angeles Office reports-that  a check of
 the Selective  Service Headquarters records  for the State of
 California  shows no registration for  Sirhan Sirhan or his
 brothers Saidallah  Sirhan and Munir  Sirhan.  The remaining
 brothers Sharif   and Adel Sirhan are  both registered with
 local board  91, Pasadena,' California.

             Our Los Angeles Office  in noting the failure to
 register  on the part of Saidallah  and Munir Sirhan advised
 that all four  brothers have apparently  been cooperative and
 have readily  furnished background  information relative to
 the activities  of Sirhan Sirhan.   Los Angeles was of the
 opinion that  to pursue the Selective  Service aspect insofar
 as Saidallah  and Munir are concerned  at this time could
 possibly adversely  affect their cooperative  spirit which
 has existed  thus far,

 ACTION:

             In view of the above  there is attached for approval,


Enclosure
