In an interview with Univision-Noticias on Sunday, Juanita Castro came clear that she had worked with the C.I.A., the arch enemy of Fidel Castro for three years. Initially, Ms. Castro supportred the new regime her brothers Raul and Fidel put in place after the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista. All of this came to a sudden halt when they started to move the nation in the direction of Communism and ignore human rights. She actually helped harbor those being persecuted by her brothers by hiding them in her Havana home. The C.I.A. heard word of her disdain for the regime and approached her about working for them, and she provided them with valuable information for three years until she was exiled to Miami in 1964. She has not spoken to Raul or Fidel in nearly forty years and does not intend to anytime soon. She will soon be releasing a tell all about the relationship and dealings of her and her brothers.
