    The author proves the following theorem on groups G generated by two elements A, B of \(SL_ 2({\mathbb{C}})\), which is more general than the result given in the title: Let G be non-elementary and non-elliptic. Then there is a generating pair \(\{\) U,V\(\}\) of G which is Nielsen-equivalent to \(\{\) A,B\(\}\) such that the subgroup generated by \(U^ n\), \(V^ n\) is a discrete free group of rank 2 for some sufficiently large n.
