In dialogue with ‘Blu Radio’, the aunt of one of these young people told details of what the last communication with them was like and what is known so far.
“At 6:30 in the morning on Saturday my sister contacted my nephew. He told us that they were going to look for a safe place to take refuge. They were going with a friend and he already showed up,” he said.

However, being in a state of shock, this young man has not been able to provide more information about the whereabouts of Antonio Mesias Montano and Ivonne Rubio, so this woman called the authorities of Israel and Colombia.
