  1. On 4 January 1963 AMHINT-27 met with QUANTUM-51 in New York City, and QUANTUM-50 advised him that Jorge MEDINA Bringuier, the Secretary General of AMSPELL in PBRUMEN, Is a G-2 agent. MEDINA and AEDO (fn), who was said by QUANTUM-50 to be on the AMSPELL National Executiyo; were actually G-2 penetrations. They planned to "roll up" the eptiro AMSPELL organization and "other groups" in one sweep and then escape by boat and contact AMRINT-53 in the JMWAVE area. MEDINA was in contact with AMBINT-53 while in PORUMEN and planned to use AMHINT-53 to establish his bona fides with KUBARK.

  2. QUANTUM-51 further advised that another mission of the two G-2 agents, MEDINA and AEDO, was to make contact with Iden A to dete etermine what role it played in anti-CASTRO activities. . The secretary of QUANTUM-50 had been a very close personal friend of AEDO'ssi 's since childhood and AEDO feared she would be implica icated, -0. so he told her or of his espionago mission. She informed QUANTUM-51 and then arranged a meeting between QUANTUM-51 and AEDO. ALDO told QUANTUM-51 of his mission and arrangements were then mado to get all the AMSPELL leaders into asylum in the Uruguayan Embassy. On or about 10 December 1962 about 25 persons, including AEDO, went into asylum.

  3. QUANTUM-51 further said that AEDO reportedly was arrested by. G-2 a long time ago and then recruited to work for the PBRUMEN Government.

CONTINUATION OF DISPATCH

  1. Reference C is a chronological summary of AMBINT-33's activities subsequent to his infiltration in PBKUMEN, and his contacts with Chelin, the brother of ANFRET-7. AMFRET-7's arrest was reported in Reference B. The AMFRET-7 Case Officer states that both AMFRET-7 and his brother were arrested, after shooting S88- it out with G-2 and being wounded. As noted in Reference D, AMFRET-7's arrest was made after QUANTUM-55 and Blanca MARTINEZ de Hoya, aka "Cuca," aka "Cuchi, brought MEDINA, AMSPELL's National Military Coordinator for Reception and Supply, to Iden A where MEDINA recognized AMHINT-33. AMHINT-33 said MEDINA was an old friend of his and had lived near him.

  2. AMIINT-33 said further that his brother knows MEDINA, that MEDINA is the man whom AMHINT-33 used in 1961 to check up on REBELLON (Inu), the FEU Secretary General in PBRUMEN. AMHINT-33 added in his S/W Nessage 11 of 10 December 1962 that "his friends" are still in jail.

  3. Reference E transmitted a letter written by AMHINT-33 on 29 December 1962 in which he states that G-2 infiltration is so great that he considers it impossible to organize anything, and he indicates that some of the agents, as in this case, have been infil- trated for more than two years. He presumably means infiltrated into anti-CASTRO organizations and/or activities.

  4. Relative to the "other groups" mentioned in para. 1 above, AMHINT-33's Case Officer believes that AMHINT-33 is probably referring to the MRR, the MRP, the MDC and the 30th of November groups. The "friends" mentioned in Para. 5 may be one Eduardo BRINGAS, who is about 23 years of age, one GOUMI (nu), and others previously referred to but not identified by AMHINT-33; they may have worked for AMHINT-33.

  5. JMWAVE traces on the individuals involved in this plot offer little concrete information.

a. It is noted that Jorge MEDINA Bringuier is listed on Page 13 of Attachment C to UFGA-4977 as an MRR member, with a listed aka of Carlos PRADO. JMWAVE tracing identifies one Carlos PRADO as "a brother of Raul, the head of G-2 in Las Villas Province," as reported in HAVA-6437, 5 October 1960; there is no further informa tion on this Carlos PRADO. However, the original source of the inform ation given in Attachment C of UFGA-1977 was a letter brought out of PBRUMEN by AMSTRUT-1 about early July 1962. Said letter contained a $25 money order, issued at Station No. 9, New Orleans, on 16 March 1962, for Jorge MEDINA. Bringuier and purchased by Maria Teresa MEDINA. The envelope, addressed to Sra. Consuelo. C. de RIVAS in Mexico City, bore the notation, "For Carlos PRADO," and contained a note, "This money order for $25 is for Carlos PRADO from his mother," in addition to the money order. There is one Carlos PRADO in Mexico. He is studying engineering and is the brother of Fausting PRADO Garcia, an engineer who works close to "Che" GUEVARA and is of current KUTUBE interest Faustino PRADO is married to Clara ARTIME, A sister of Josefina ARTIME, who is a close friend of AMGLEN-9, and she is also of current KUTUBE interest When AMSTRUT-2, who could have given this letter to AMSTRUT-1 to take out of PBRUMEN, was in Mexico City she called Carlos PRADO by telephone at 249769 and told him that she was a friend of his mother. This PRADO family is a large one, and includes another brother, Angel, who is in Spain, a sister who is a nun in Italy, and another brother who is a doctor in New York City. Additional data could be secured on this family from AMSTRUT-2 if desired. However, it seems probable that this money order may have been sold in Cuba by Jorge MEDINA and purchased, sooner or later, by the mother of the Carlos PRADO who is currently a student in Mexico. A copy of the material carried out by AMSTRUT-1 is being forwarded herewith. It will be noted that a part of the attachment was disseminated as UFG-1239, 13 July 1962.

CONTINUATION OF DISPATCH

b. It is further noted that JMWAVE files show one "Mongo" listed on Page 14 of Attachment C to UEGA-4977 as captured and sentenced to 30 years in prison. This information came. from UFG-779, 12 January 1962, which was based on an ANCUTLER-1 intercept of a report from the MRR Acting Internal Coordinator in PBRUMEN to Hipolito LAZARO, the MRR Internal Coordinator temporarily in PBPRIME, sent via the Argentine Diplomatic Pouch. There was no further identification of this "Mongo." 24

c. It is noted that Reference F identifies Jorge HAEDO as a former anti-Castrista who was tortured and doubled by the PBRUMEN Government; HAEDO appears to be the correct spelling.

d. "Cuca" or "Cuchi" MARTINEZ, who has held the position of AMSPELL National Coordinator for Civil Resistance, is a personal friend of AMCOG-3 and family. She is believed to have taken asylum in the Mexican Embassy. SW Nessage 12 from AMCOG-3, dated 8 December 1962 and received 12 December, reported that QUANTUM-51 01 advised "Cuca" to hide or be cautious because MEDINA had turned out to bo a G-2 member. The message said that this was learned from AMSPELL prisoners and that, during interrogation, they were asked many questions about "Cuca" and AMOOG-2.

  1. When the AMHINT-53 security review mentioned in Reference A is received, additional investigation as necessary will be made at JMWAVE.
