..........Labiofam is one of the several state firms involved in developing a pharmaceutical industry that Cuba hopes will be a key foreign currency earner. Labiofam is headed by Antonio Fraga Castro, reportedly a nephew of President Fidel Castro.

Sources close to the case have said Vesco was denounced by his foreign business partners, leading to the investigation.

The Foreign Ministry said in June of last year that Vesco was being investigated on suspicion of being an ``agent for foreign special services.''--- HAVANA - Fugitive U.S. financier Robert Vesco, detained in Cuba a year ago, will go on trial on Thursday on charges of fraud and other economic crimes…..

I guess this is how Castro gets rid of his business partners. If you dance with the devil, you have to pay the piper.
