In the state of Tlaxcala, a group of Investigative Police (PDI) agents arrested four alleged kidnappers who, when they identified themselves with the authorities, showed credentials from the National Defense Secretariat ( Sedena ), as active military soldiers.
This was announced by Ernestina Carro Roldán, head of the State Attorney General’s Office (PGJE) through a video message that was published via social networks.
According to the account of the events, everything happened between the night of Friday, December 2, and the morning of Saturday, December 3. In the first instance, at 9:03 p.m. according to a call made to the 911 emergency number, the kidnappers took a man, a woman, and two minors (an 11-year-old girl and a four-year-old boy).
Minutes after receiving the report, at 9:10 p.m., uniformed officers from the PGJE in the municipality of Tlaxco arrived at the location to begin the work of information, analysis, crisis management, and negotiation.
During the attempts to reach an agreement with the criminals, around 40 calls were received, after which the group of kidnappers demanded an amount of $2 million pesos to release the family.
Hours later, at 02:00 in the morning on Saturday, December 3, three of the four members of the family were released: the man, the woman, and the 11-year-old girl. The police agents found them in a ditch on the Tlaxco – Apan highway.
Subsequently, the group of captors released the four-year-old boy after they were given $50,000 pesos in cash on the highway where the other family members were released. The minor was located on a bridge.
After the infant was protected by the authorities, the investigative police began a pursuit against the kidnappers, whose identities have been kept confidential.
Although it has not been determined if the identifications are authentic or if the alleged perpetrators are actually active members of the Army, the PGJE troops captured them and handed them over to an agent of the Public Ministry.
So far, the military corporation has not issued any statement regarding the possible membership of the alleged kidnappers in its ranks.
