SummaryResumen

The Evening Star reported that federal authorities arrested members of a counterfeit ring accused of attempting to pass $3 million in fake U.S. currency into the Cuban national treasury. In court proceedings before U.S. Commissioner Edward W. McDonald, it was alleged that the proceeds were intended to finance a revolution against the Dominican Republic. While the federal grand jury indictment focused on the counterfeit scheme and named two Cubans, it did not explicitly cite the Dominican invasion plot.

En las actuaciones judiciales ante el comisionado estadounidense Edward W. McDonald, se alegó que las ganancias estaban destinadas a financiar una revolución contra la República Dominicana. Aunque la acusación del gran jurado federal se centró en la trama de falsificación y señaló a dos cubanos, no citó explícitamente el plan de invasión a la República Dominicana.
