They took the two and called their families to demand 300,000 dollars per release, but later agreed to receive 40,000 pesos on May 5, near a shopping center in Guadalajara, after which the hostages were released near the junction of Chapala-Ajijic highway.

But the kidnappers demanded 300,000 pesos, for which set the deadline on May 10 near the same mall.

In an operation of the procurement agents were arrested Jalisco Esqueda Lemon Lemon and Hernandez when they went to collect on a motorcycle.

They were subsequently arrested other alleged participants and seized a farm located in Hidalgo Street in San Nicolas de Ibarra, a town of Chapala, who was identified as the place where it was kept in captivity for the hostages.

Alleged kidnappers were seized, also a 2010 model truck and a 2008 model and the motorcycle used to collect the ransom.

He was also seized a 38 caliber pistol and three Super caliber nine millimeters, in addition to the 40 thousand dollars they would receive when they were arrested.

Who are the realtors?

Well, it says an administrator and an employee in the link but on the television news last night it said an agent "y su ayudante" in the municipality of Chapala, which of course includes Ajijic ...but there was a whole lot going on in Riberas last night from what I could see...Lord only knows what was what.
The Realtor and/or persons were not mentioned and if anyone does know names I hope they won't be mentioned here, for the sake of the individuals. I for one, am curious about nationality of the victims....But the important thing is they got out alive, yeah?

Absolutely..

I think it is time to have a serious cleaning in all the villages along the lake.

I hope you are referring to a serious cleansing of the bad boys and not the real estate folk!
