Argentina's Indigenous Tupac Amaru organization said Friday that three people with automatic weapons stormed their headquarters and demanded they cease their struggle to free their leader, Milagro Sala.

The organization pointed blame at President Mauricio Macri and demanded an immediate explanation from the government.

The incident occurred after the Committee for Freedom of Milagro Sala installed a tent in Plaza de Mayo to demand President Macri comply with a resolution issued by the United Nations' Working Group on Arbitrary Detentions free Sala.
