Summary
A sister of longtime Cuban leader Fidel Castro aided the CIA in the 1960s, at a time when the US was plotting to assassinate him and replace his Communist regime, she said in a book released Monday. Juanita Castro, 76, admits to working with the American spy agency in her Spanish-language book Fidel and Raul, My Brothers. Castro, who now resides in the US, said she was contacted in 1964 after she broke with Fidel and Raul, the current president of Cuba, and collaborated with the CIA both inside Cuba and when she went into exile later that year.
