and that's when he was detained by the military, add the military, come from the images and reports. what gets him from local media, such as that? he's not just an easy, wasn't that didn't just go out and pick him up. the definitely must have been a struggle because the where, you know, our vehicles, emerald vehicle, of fleets, of admiral vehicle for the presidency that you know, we're shot at and all of that. so yes, we do know that he's been taken out. the still information on his new quest. catchy and as we are following the, developing the story as it develops. so we know that in the coming
