I must point out, without advancing any hypothesis because the fact has barely been hours, that the Public Prosecutor's Office has appointed two prosecutors, a prosecutor specializing in aeronautics and a prosecutor based on the Miranda state, which is where the tragic event unfortunately occurred to clarify these facts, "said the revolutionary prosecutor, Tarek William Saab.
