The 68-year-old son of Cuba's former leader Fidel Castro has killed himself in Havana, according to Cuban state media.
Fidel Ángel Castro Díaz-Balart was found on Thursday morning and is said to have suffered from depression.
The first-born son of the late president was nicknamed "Fidelito", or Little Fidel, because of the family resemblance.
He was a nuclear physicist, trained by the former Soviet Union.
"Fidel Castro Díaz-Balart, who had been treated by a group of doctors for several months due to deep depression, took his life this morning,"
Cuba's official newspaper Granma reported - little more than a year after his father.
State television said he had been receiving medical treatment as an outpatient in recent months, following a hospital stay.
