arrested. they have confessed, having committed this crime last tuesday was the 1st confession. on wednesday, the person who confessed took the federal police to, to find where they had hidden the bodies of both bruno and phillips. and right now we have some conflict over the, the meaning and the context of this crime and how it's linked to abroad are seen and broader networks of organized crime in the region. so the federal police is saying that the crime has been solved, that we know who the people who committed the crime mar, who pulled the trigger on, on, on the 2 men who were missing. and so that there is almost nothing left to find out . now, the indigenous groups of the values of id, above all when the visor, which is a union of indigenous people to the advisory valley,
