lf r. Lil.:BEUlL Do :roo want to put that an the record, that stol")' 7UU told me
Just a mJnute sgofMr BllNOr.IEIL Last January I went to lllrunl, Fla., where I wa.a ta.Iklllg
to Dr. Emmo Nunez.Port uondo, former Cubll.D Ambassador to the United Nations,
and he told me that just after the a s . , ; a ~ i n n t l o n of President Kennedy he rece.lveda reque,t trom one of the biggest Mexican newspapers asking .him tor somepnbllc declarations ot opinion nhout the llSSilSl ination. e ent that day aletter With hJs prt bS release Inside, oddres<:OO. to one riend of him wh o Js living1n llex1co City and hls .friend deli-rer that press release to the Mexico City
11ewspaper 1n Mexico. In tltatrelease, Mr . '\unez.Pona ondo blamed Fidel Castro
aa the "intellectual murderer of Pre rident Kenneds."
Dr . Portnondo told me that the snme day thnt that i.ntormatlon appear in
the paper, his trit>nd suffer l lD attempt to be kidnaped. 1.'here wen t about
eight roen to thl.s man house, nod when they were trying to put him inside
c;ne automobile, nt the some moment pass n reporter- believe that was tromthe AP -nnd when the reporter saw what was gol.ng on, be sturt to ask for .help.At that moment the police cnme and started to ques tion the eight roen, and,
according to Nunez·PortuoiJdo, they ldentl.fied l.hemselves as members of the
Secret Service of the Mex: Cil.D Go-rernment, and Mr. Portuondo's friend was
benten so bani that he .had to go tf) a hospital for 4 days with a broken leg,just because he was the one who deliver Nunez·Ponuondo's statement to the
llexlCllD neWI Jlllper blaming Fidel Castro for the murder or President Kennedy.
Mr. Lrrnn n I WilDt to go back brletly to the le tter from Fernandez toLechup whJch you l.ndicated .had been Intercepted.
Mr. "Bm:NGUIER. Yes. ai r.Mr. T.xnrr:n:a What Jette- is this and who Intercepted it?
Mr. Blu:NGUIEB. Well, I believe thnt that Jetter was intercepted here in New
Orleans w.hen Fernandez was sending the letter to .Ale:xlco. I didn't have too
much contact with tha t deal, because that was for another organtzatlon, not
my organization, and 1 didn 't want to be ln-rol-red, in that that msybe was against
the law. I always t ry to be oat o Mr. I .xpn;;xn You mean th is letter was intercepted by some other Cuban
orpnlza lon?
Mr. BI INat:IEll. Yes; for the same organization -who had the trainlng camp. f:Mr. I .IEBEI EB. That was intercepted while It was in th e l'.S. malls? r.Mr. BBI 'O'OUIEB. I think so. I think that he gave that letter to somebody
to drop in the mall, and that somebody that was suspicious about him. they
opened the letter and they found wha t the letter was telllng. I don't know
what they do With the letter. I don't know nothing else. I know about what
Is said in the paper. I know that they dismantle all the training camp here
ln New OrleaDll. They went back to M1amL I paid the trip for two of themto go back to Mlaml. Excuse me. I did not pay the trip, I collect SOIDe'lDolllesamong some Cubans. and we paid the trip . I do11't want to set something onthe record that 18 not- - -

whether he in Cnbn now or not. J lxcnse me. Did 'YOU check any other t r ip
from Oswald to Mexico previously to the tr ip 3 w e e k < ~ before the af ISUSinatlon?Because 1 th1n.k that you have to lmow sure that lli. Stuckey, BUl Stucker.made another interview to Oswald, and he .had the tape of that Interview. 1ha ve one tape of that Interview. I thtn.k tlutt that Interview was made on August
17, 1963, and at that l.nteniew Oawald said, answerlnl to one question, that hehad been l.n Mexl.co, and in all the magulnes that I am reading they are tallliDg
abont Oswald was born in New Orlea.ns. he went to Xew York, he came back
to ::-Jew Orlea.ns, be went to the Martnes. he went to RUBS1a., be cnme back. be
he went to Dallaa, he came to New Orleans back, he went to Yexlco S weeks
before the assassination. but I don't reed in any newspo.per or any tmUaLZinetalking about some other trip trom Oswald to Mexico. and If you h.n'f'e tha t
tape, ln Oswald's own -rolce .he admitted that he .had been to Me:x:ico beforeAugust17.
Mr. J . rrm;u:a Well, Mr. Stuckey will be here this aftenlOcm. We will aakhim a.hout that.
Mr. B l l r N ~ r o i E L Thank you.
Mr. LlE:Jn:u:B. Gol.ng back brie11y to tb1s Etory ot Mr. Pena ~ y o u that he
had 'l eD Oswald In the Havana Bar Wi.th th1s other lfexica.n. did the FBIerer talk to Mr. Pe.ila abottt this? Do you lmow?
Mr . BBINGUIEL I don 't lmow. I know that the owner of the Ba'"8.11A Ba r, ln
my oplnlon. is a good person, but be aays that al11rllYB when he talk to the
FBI In the bar or somethl.ng Uke that, that he loee ctJatmneD, becaDIIe, you - .

to talk about. I am i ' l ln that the brother, RliPeTto-1 am mre that he w1Il t2lleverything that be knows.
Mr. Ll:mEU l. Did you form a.ns oplllion u to whether the report that Rnpertn
