The indictment was related to Castro's alleged role in the shootdown of two small planes operated by the exile group Brothers to the Rescue.
Former Cuban leader Raúl Castro was indicted by a U.S. grand jury in connection with the Cuban military's fatal downing of two planes in 1996 — an escalation in the U.S. pressure campaign against the Cuban government.
The Justice Department is expected to announce criminal charges against Cuba's former leader Raúl Castro, sources tell CBS News.
