Apitoku

During one football season, police wiretaps had the whole of Portugal talking about referees, club directors, 'fruit' and 'coffee with milk', code words that nobody has forgotten since. The case became known as Apito Dourado, the Golden Whistle. In each case someone was left alone with the golden whistle, and the whistle can be in any room. Place each person in their room, one per row, one per column. Whoever is left alone in the whistle's room is the culprit. All the characters are made up.
