Following the unveiling of alleged "alien corpses" in Mexico, a criminal probe has been launched into the expert who presented them.
As previously reported, renowned UFO investigator Jaime Maussan, accompanied by a team of distinguished scientists, presented two intriguing specimens before the Mexican Congress on September 12.
The remains, securely encased in transparent containers and allegedly recovered from the depths of Cusco, Peru, have raised eyebrows with their otherworldly characteristics.
Researchers assert that these entities do not fit into the human evolutionary chain, leaving approximately 30 percent of their genetic makeup shrouded in mystery.
As reported by Sky News, these ancient remains are estimated to be approximately 1,000 years old. Carbon dating conducted by the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) confirmed their age, revealing features like three-fingered hands, a conspicuous absence of teeth, and stereoscopic vision - all dating back over a millennium.
The figures, displayed in the congressional setting, exhibited a humanoid shape with a retractable neck and elongated skulls. These beings possessed lightweight yet robust bones and were entirely toothless.
However, critics have pointed out an unusual anomaly - the specimens appeared to be coated in a substance resembling sand, a detail rarely seen in well-preserved fossils subjected to rigorous scientific scrutiny.
Following this remarkable discovery, Maussan now finds himself at the center of a criminal probe, as officials in Peru are questioning how he obtained the remains and got them out of the country.
As reported by LBC, Peruvian officials insist that the remains are from Earth, with Culture Minister Leslie Urteaga adding that they are investigating how the "pre-hispanic" bodies left the country.
Maussan said: "I'm not worried. I have done absolutely nothing illegal," but refused to explain how he obtained the bodies, adding that he would reveal all at a later date.
Retired US Navy Director and former Navy pilot Ryan Graves, a witness to UAP sightings and government classifications, was also at the presentation.
Graves had previously asserted that UFOs were an "open secret" within the military, disclosing that his squadron had routinely detected unidentified objects off the coast of Virginia in 2014.
However, it would appear that Graves also has doubts about the validity of Maussan's findings.
He tweeted: "After the U.S. Congressional UFO hearing, I accepted an invitation to testify before the Mexican Congress hoping to keep up the momentum of government interest in pilot experiences with UAPs [unidentified anomalous phenomena].
"Unfortunately, yesterday’s demonstration was a huge step backwards for this issue. My testimony centered on sharing my experience and the UAP reports I hear from commercial and military aircrew through ASA’s witness program.
"I will continue to raise awareness of UAP as an urgent matter of aerospace safety, national security, and science, but I am deeply disappointed by this unsubstantiated stunt."
This wouldn't be the first time that Maussan's findings were shrouded in controversy, as in the past he had presented similar findings, only for them to be proven to be the mummified remains of children.
UNAM has confirmed that although they assessed the remains to be over 1,000 years old, they were unable to verify the origins.
