GUADALAJARA, Jalisco -- After kidnapping five young men and keeping them hostage, a criminal group that operates in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Zone, cut off an index finger of each of the victims then set them free.
The State Prosecutor's Office located the whereabouts of the young people when they went to the Old Civil Hospital on Monday to receive medical attention; there they took the testimony of the victims, who said that they were deprived of their liberty by a group of armed and hooded individuals.
According to the story of those affected, on April 10 they were inside a house located in the Los Encinos subdivision, in Tlajomulco, when an armed group broke into the building and took them all by force.
The young people, who are between 18 and 25 years old, pointed out to the ministerial agents that before taking them, they tied their hands and blindfolded them, so they do not know where they were during the 5 days that their captors held them.
Yesterday, the kidnappers cut off an index finger of each one and then released them in the La Concha subdivision in Tlajomulco. When they were released, the five of them took a taxi to their homes, then they went to the Civil Hospital of Guadalajara.
EDITOR’S NOTE: I think this may be a case of dumb Mexicans. If this was a kidnapping for ransom, the dumb shits set the victims free and kept the fingers instead of the other way around.
