In order to prevent any type of leak, he built a burial enclosure by making and placing a slab about 60 centimeters wide and two meters long above the corpse and another of the same size that he placed vertically at a side of the corpse. All this prevented the dogs from detecting the body in the first raid,” according to what was reported in the official report.
