INTERVIEW OF GABRIEL CONTRERAS UVINA
The following information was supplied by a
confidential source who has furnished reliable information
in the past:
On May 23, 1964, the source located and interviewed
GABRIEL CONTRERAS UVINA, who operates an electrical appliance
shop at the corner of Gonzalez Ortega and Primero de Mayo
streets in Ciudad Camargo, Chihuahua, Mexico. The following
information was supplied to the source by CONTRERAS:
CONTRERAS was in Mexico City from September 26, 1963,
to October 2, 1963, and resided at the Hotel del Comercio
during that period. He always stays at this hotel when he
visits Mexico City, which is approximately once every month.
Following the assassination of President KENNEDY on
November 22, 1963, CONTRERAS observed photographs of OSWALD
in the press. He then recalled that on one occasion at lunch
time while eating at the small restaurant next door to the
Hotel del Comercio he sat down at a table with an unknown
American. It was necessary for him to occupy a table with
this unknown American due to the crowded condition of the
restaurant at the time. After observing the press photographs
of OSWALD which appeared in connection with the publicity
concerning the assassination, CONTRERAS reached the definite
conclusion that OSWALD was identical with the unknown American
with whom he had occupied a table in the restaurant. CONTRERAS
advised the source that he did not exchange a single word with
OSWALD since it appeared that the latter spoke no Spanish
and CONTRERAS does not understand English.
