Ochwepheshe ababuyisela ingaphakathi lesonto elikhulu lamaKhatholika enhloko-dolobha yaseMexico bathole amabhokisi omthofu angu-23 anemibhalo yenkolo nezinsalela ezinjengemidwebo emincane, iziphambano zokhuni noma zesundu, kubika i-Associated Press.
Imibhalo emabhokisini inikezelwe kwabangcwele. Kwashiywa nencwadi ebhalwe ngesandla kwenye yazo, okunikeza isizathu sokukholelwa ukuthi batholakala ngo-1810, ngemva kwalokho baphinde bangcwatshwa.
Umlayezo uthe elinye lamabhokisi latholwa abakhi nabadwebi ngo-1810. Leli phepha lalicela noma ubani olitholile ukuthi "akhulekele imiphefumulo yakhe".
Okutholwe kwakusezindaweni eziqoshwe ezindongeni ezansi kwelambu lesonto lombhishobhi elingangenwa umoya, elingaphezu komkhathi. Ayembozwe ngezindlawu zobumba futhi efihlwe ngaphansi kukakhonkolo.

Omunye wabo - ugcinwe ngokuphelele, uchaza okuqukethwe kwe-capsule, kufaka phakathi izindondo ezingu-23, izinhlamvu zemali ezinhlanu neziphambano ezincane ezinhlanu zesundu. Uphawu lwazisa ukuthi "wonke umuntu ungowokuvikela ezivunguvungwini", kuphawula i-AP.
