“There’s already a lot of research going on, and there’s going to be results from who the ones who stole it, I can’t talk about it anymore and if someone’s arguing that it was a self-advocate or that they attribute that we stole the drugs because it’s very bad faith,” he said.
However, the president himself acknowledged “very strange things” in how the events happened and in the delay in bringing the complaint of theft.
“The investigation is carried out by the government of Mexico City, and I believe that tomorrow or Monday or Tuesday of next week we will have all the data,” he promised.
