The subject was not discussed

At the cabinet meeting they discussed everything except the issue of the day. On the way out, the spokesman said 'the subject was not discussed'. Neither was the subject, nor the evidence lying on the table. The clues no longer hand you everything on a plate.

Suspects

• Armando, the government spokesman: He reads out the cabinet's statement. Sometimes before the cabinet has finished.
• Benta, the protocol officer: She sets out the name cards and the glasses of water. She knows who drinks and who doesn't.
• Ciríaco, the official photographer: He takes the government's family photo. That day there was a minister missing from it.
• Dulcelina, the junior minister: She came into the cabinet meeting with one file and left with two.
