Carrying guns, were arrested by guards
THERE was uproar in the Chamber of Deputies, provoked by the arrested of two individuals, presumed to be of Israeli origin, who were carrying a high power gun and an attaché case with nine grenades, three magazines with 53 cartridges and C-4 explosives, considered to be highly powerful.
The arrested men who said they were called Salvador Gerson Sunke, of Mexican nationality, and Sar ben Zui, who said he was a colonel of the Israeli special forces, remained in custody for over three hours in the legislature building, during which they said nothing, before they were interviewed by officials of the Public Prosecutor’s office (PGR) who removed them from the Legislature Palace, concealed in hoods, and placed them under arrest.
[The article continues on an inside page by saying that the two arrested Israelis were also found to be carrying Pakistani passports]
