Mexico Army Rescues 20 Hostages in Monterrey: "The army freed 20 kidnap victims from a house in Monterrey, north Mexico, after receiving an anonymous tip. The hostages were found on Saturday. They were hand-cuffed, gagged and showed signs of torture. According to reports, some of hostages had been held for 11 days while their captors demanded between 5,000 and 50,000 pesos in ransom ($425 to $4,250)."
The MexicoBlog of the Americas Program, a fiscally sponsored program of the Center for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR), is written by Laura Carlsen. I monitor and analyze international press on Mexico, with a focus on security, immigration, human rights and social movements for peace and justice, from a feminist perspective. And sometimes I simply muse.
