5/1/64 - "Message No. 2" - communication from AMKNOB-1/Pedro Fedeli Medici (Agent Crypto) to UNKNOWN letter postmarked 5/1 (see 104-10274-10234, intercepted and provided 5/5/64 to WAVE/CI officer Charles Weisinger/Ray Dubois: "It is currently rumored in Puerto Rico that Manolo Ray has gone to Cuba or at least has disappeared from the scene (PR)...Manolo Ray has three fishing boats that apparently are fishing in Caribbean waters (See 124-10214-10381, p. 13: the main ship was probably the VENUS owned by Enrique Casado - or possibly Casado's motorized vessel the SHARK V, along with two whalers)...one of the boats is commanded by Enrique Casado, a Cuban...no one believes that Casado is just fishing...until now have received nothing from Raul (Aparicio?) or (AMKNOB-1's case officer) Julian. Nor have they sent cables. I would appreciate it if they would give me better guidance. We know from experience that we must attack these people...Will I return to Miami and from there to Mexico? One must weigh and create the appropriate moment..." Redacted version at 1994.03.17.10:47:51:060005 Reel 15, Folder O - MANUEL RAY - pp. 165-166.
104-10274-10230: THE MYSTERY ABOUT MANOLO RAY IS AS FOLLOWS. IT IS RUMORED
5/11/64 - "Message No. 3". ROUGH TRANSLATION from AMKNOB-1. "The mystery about Manuel Ray...(he) has very well-guarded plans...Enrique Casado's fishing boat is called the SHARK IV...I met in a bar a Cuban called Ismael Moreno, ex-Capt Rebel Army...He told me that he is closely connected with 2nd Front/Alpha 66 and other groups. He came here looking for work and to join Manuel Ray's JURE because, according to him, Plan OMEGA is not going to be implemented soon...it dawns on me that Castro will look for motives, justifications and proofs (attempts) to initiate a scandal and accusations in the United Nations. It's just my (personal) opinion arrived at by thinking over the usual Castro diabolic tactics. I have full faith that the days (or few months) of Castro are numbered...I could return to Miami for several days, continue the investigations there, and from there send a cable for an appointment in Mexico? My plans are always ready subject to your approval. I always keep in mind that if I do not prod those people there, they will forget for another two months."

Those who do not support Ray assert that he is in agreement with Castro. This seems a bit illogical but one can expect almost anything from an atheistic leftist who is anti-American...Enrique Casado has been told that (Israel Moreno) was in Puerto Rico and...(Casado considered Moreno) an informer...I have a plan which I first would like to discuss with you...I expect to be in Miami, 15 May..."
