ASSASSINATION SUSPECT CHARGED
MIAMI, Jan. 26 - A Cuban exile already charged with plotting
the death of Fidel Castro faces new charges in a drug case.
Juan Bautista Marquez has been charged with importing 365 kilos of
cocaine, conspiracy to import 2,000 kilos and money laundering.
The DEA says four others have been indicted in the case and six more
are expected later this week.
Marquez is charged with conspiracy in an alleged plot to kill Castro
during a visit to South America in 1997.
The DEA says the two cases are not related although the same wiretaps
were used in both cases.
