Raul Castro's illegitimacy. Part Eleven.

Already since late 1988, Juan Reinaldo Sanchez, former Fidel's bodyguard, realized that his boss was not only involved in the cocaine trade, but even ran those illegal operations like a true Mafia godfather. It happened that on one occasion he had accidentally overheard a conversation between General Jose Abrantes and Fidel, about a Cuban boatman that from the United States used to do business with the regime; and whom Fidel, through Abrantes, authorized to spend a week's holiday in Santa María del Mar with his parents in Cuba, for seventy-five thousand dollars, with the alibi of making the boatman's  parents believe that his son was a Cuban agent infiltrated in the USA, and that his life would be in grave danger if they did not keep the secret of his visit to Cuba. Later, during the trial of Cause No 1, former bodyguard suffers another bitter experience that tells in his book "The Hidden Life of Fidel Castro" as I quote: "At one point, the prosecution focused specifically on the issue of a hangar located in Varadero airport, where the drug was stored in the way to the United States along with other contraband. Suddenly my mind cleared. I remembered having accompanied Fidel, Abrantes, Tony de la Guardia and other MC Department officials to that same hangar two years ago. After leaving the palace in a three-vehicle convoy, we had arrived, after an hour long drive, to that building, located on the right side of the Pan American Highway. That day I had stayed outside the building while Abrantes and Tony de la Guardia showed Fidel an alleged storage container of rum bottles and cigars for export. Then, just after a quarter of an hour from our arrival, we were on our way back towards the presidential palace. At that moment of the process, I realized that two years ago Fidel had not gone to see a storage container of rum and cigars -How, indeed, could a head of state lose three hours going to see something so trivial and uninteresting?-, but a supply of white powder waiting to be sent to Florida. Because, as usual, the Commander in Chief, distrustful of his subordinates and cautious to the extreme, wanted to check everything with his own eyes, even the smallest details to ensure that they had taken the precise arrangements to conceal the contraband." Can anyone have any doubt about the Castros' illegitimacy? To be continued...
