" I can't say they're bad people, but I also don't want to give false testimony or say it was them or it wasn't them because there's still no report from the authorities ," he told 'Noticias Caracol'.

And he added: " I don't know if they made it to lunch because all we know is that they disappear after they leave the gym ."

According to 'El Universal', both bodies were found on September 17 in Cocotitlán, however, they were only identified on September 22 .
