handle is hein.jfk/jfkarch78926 and id is 1 raw text is: '104-10322-10181 2022 RELEASE UNDER THE PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY ASSASSINATION RECORDS ACT OF 1992 JOLC ; 78-a1L5:. 26 July 1978 MEMORANDUM FOR Deputy Director of Central Intelligence FROM S.D. Breckinridge SUBJECT HSCA Request for Sensitive CIA file 1. Action Re uested: That you approve the recommenda- tion in paragrap 6 to wthhold files on Teresa Proenza Proenza with a generalized explanation to the HSCA Chief Counsel of the reasons therefor. 2. Background: The HSCA investigators have come across reerences to the name of Teresa Proenza Proenza, who served in 1963 as the Cultural Attache at the Cuban Embassy in Mexico City, and have requested her file. The files concerning this person lead to a very sensitive deception operation that resulted in the jailing of certain Cuban officials, including Miss Proenza. The ramifications of the operation are extensive but do not, of themselves, relate .to the assassination of J.F. Kennedy. 3. The fact that Miss Proenza was ordered back to Cuba: suddenly in December 1963, shortly after the assassina- tion.of President Kennedy, may make her of special interest to the HSCA; however, the cause for the recall was the CIA operation. 4. HSCA has not been exposed to the techniques of deception operations. This particular operation continues to have considerable sensitivity, without reference to the techniques that we would wish to not have exposed to this Committee. Attached at Tab A is a paper summarizing the nature of the operation. At Tab B is a shorter summary prepared as a first attempt to get an .agreement with the HSCA investigators to not inquire into this matter further. 5. The Deputy Director for Operations has approved recommendations of Chief, IAD/CAS, concurred in by Chief of LA Division, that this matter not be shown to HSCA. CL flY.LP' ----------L-
