TL;DR Summary

Former U.S. ambassador Manuel Rocha has been arrested in Miami on a criminal complaint, accused of secretly serving as an agent of Cuba's government. The FBI's long-running counterintelligence investigation alleges that Rocha worked to promote the Cuban government's interests without registering with the Justice Department, as required by federal law. Rocha's diplomatic career spanned 25 years, including a stint at the U.S. Interests Section in Cuba during the Cold War. Further details about the case are expected to be revealed at a court appearance on Monday.
