The man managed to escape from his captors and, after seeking refuge, contacted security officers who were patrolling the area.

The State Public Security Secretariat (SSPE), together with the National Guard, the National Defense Secretariat (Defensa), the State Investigation Agency (AEI) and the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE), provided support and protection to a man who reported having been the victim of a kidnapping in the municipality of Nuevo Casas Grandes, Chihuahua.

According to the official report, the victim managed to escape from his captors and, after seeking refuge, managed to contact security officers who were patrolling the area. The incident occurred on Mirador street, where the visibly distressed man approached the officers to ask for help.

According to the victim’s initial testimony, he was intercepted and abducted by several armed men, who held him in an unknown location for several hours. However, in an oversight by his captors, the man managed to escape and run until he found the authorities.

Due to the seriousness of the complaint, the SSPE elements, in coordination with federal and state corporations, activated the protocols of attention to victims, providing immediate protection and transferring him to the facilities of the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE) for his safekeeping and so that he could give his statement before the Public Prosecutor’s Office.

At the FGE’s facilities, the man received medical and psychological care to assess his physical and emotional state after the experience. At the same time, the ministerial personnel initiated the corresponding proceedings, opening an investigation file to clarify the facts, identify those responsible and determine the possible motive of the crime.

The authorities called on citizens to immediately report any suspicious situation or criminal act, stressing the importance of citizen participation in the construction of safer environments.
