Noriega worked for CIA

Manuel Noriega fed the CIA secrets on the Panama Canal negotiations and conducted other U.S. intelligence operations and in return was paid at least $300,162, according to a court documents released Thursday. But a 32-page classified document, censored by the Justice Department before being filed by federal prosecutors, said Noriega's own descriptions of his role in U.S. intelligence-gathering were "somewhat overblown."

The former Panamanian dictator has claimed that over the years he was paid about some $11-million by the U.S. government for his spying.

Defense attorneys have said Noriega has a great deal of information about past U.S. government policies, the Reagan administration and President Bush's days as the head of the Central Intelligence Agency.

. . .

Earlier this month Noriega's attorneys, Frank A. Rubino and Jon A. May, filed a 107-page document that reported a long history of cooperation between Noriega and the CIA. In that document, Noriega's lawyers said the former Panamanian ruler was paid more than $11-million from a CIA slush fund in exchange for overlooking many U.S.-sponsored illegal activities, including drugs-for-guns operations in support of the Contra forces in Nicaragua.
