</s>TAMARA COROVICH SUNDAY 4-30. HAL 2.99 7.3Y 10:1pm 1/30. JE, 217 2025 RELEASE UNDER E.O. 14176

Summary  
The documents detail FBI and CIA investigations into potential threats against Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) in June 1968, focusing on interviews with witnesses, forensic analysis of personal items, and cross-referencing information from multiple jurisdictions. Key elements include:  
- Interviews with TAMARA COROVICH, VERONICA DEEMS, and others in Santa Monica and Los Angeles regarding suspicious individuals linked to RFK’s assassination. The FBI examined items from Sirhan Sirhan’s room, including an Arabic letter referencing his mother and financial transactions. A complaint form referenced James Allen Henderson as having provided information about the assassination.  
- Investigations into ZAKI, who denied knowledge of RFK’s death, and a confidential source linked to the Federated Americans Against Israel Racists (FAAIR), which allegedly supported Sirhan Sirhan. The CIA operative Tony Lobman was noted in connection with these inquiries.  
- FBI efforts to verify SULAIMAN NOSAYAN, an Arab student at Olympic College in Washington, who reportedly discussed RFK’s assassination with agent Floyd Armstrong. A teletype from Mexico City indicated no matches between Sirian Sirhan and known Soviet/Cuban assassin networks.  
- Alleged overheard conversations about RFK’s assassination in Baghdad (May 17, 1965) by a waiter at the Ambassador Hotel, though this date conflicts with historical records of the actual event on June 5, 1968. A "Kill KENNEDY" pamphlet was reportedly found at the hotel, prompting further inquiry.  
- FBI neighborhood investigations in Pasadena to locate Tom Good and John Strathman, which yielded no evidence of their existence. The SIRIAN family members were photographed by Pasadena police, with requests for confidentiality.
