Vigilantes in a Mexican village have seized the mother of a local gang leader and proposed swapping her for a kidnap victim taken on Monday. After seizing alleged collaborators of the gang, including the mother of the leader “El Tequilero”, the locals have recorded video messages for the gang. “In return for my husband’s life, I will deliver your mother,” says the kidnap victim’s wife in one video, which has been broadcast on local TV. Police have been sent to the village. “We have your mother here, mister known as El Tequilero,” says Yadira Guillermo Garcia, whose husband, an engineer, was seized by the gang, addressing the gang leader.
“I request an exchange…. I want him safe and sound.”
