No solution

Explanation:

#abs z = sqrt(z bar z)# then

#abs(z+1) = sqrt((z+1)(bar z +1)) = abs(z-1) = sqrt((z-1)(bar z-1)) #

and

#abs(z+2) = sqrt((z+2)(bar z +2)) = abs(bar z-3) = sqrt((bar z-3)(z-3)) #

or

#{(bar z z + z+bar z + 1 = bar z z -(barz + z) + 1),(z bar z + 2(z+bar z)+4=barz z -3(barz + z)+ 9):}#

or

#{(z+bar z = -(barz + z)),(2(z+bar z)=-3(barz + z)+ 5):}#

or

#{(z+bar z = 0),(z+bar z = 1):}#

so no solution is possible.
