MIAMI - snip

Luis Posada Carriles, 77, is in hiding in the Miami area after secretly entering the country last month, according to friends in the Cuban exile community. He plans to seek political asylum or parole as a Cuban refugee as early as next week, according to his Miami attorney.

His clandestine presence in Miami poses a dilemma for the United States government in its global fight against terrorism.

"How do you admit someone with that kind of shadow over him," said Damian Fernandez, director of the Cuban Research Institute at Florida International University. "It's going to take a lot of scrutiny."
