· 2 min read

A young Mexican who would have been involved in the fight for land in the state of Nayarit, disappeared after requesting help from the president of his country. Yes, Alexander López was kidnapped 5 days after requesting help from the president.

He knew that his life was in danger, because for several months he had been subjected to threats against his life.

Alexander managed to make Andrés Manuel López Obrador aware of his concern when he paid a visit to Bahía de Banderas. Together with a group of supporters for the 24-year-old, they made the caravan stop to share with the president what was happening.

Manuel López, in response to what Alexander told him, said "I am going to help you, go to the governor tomorrow, they will attend to you tomorrow." Obviously, the next day he attended the promised meeting, but to his surprise he was not attended and was also notified that his appointment would be granted within 15 days.

This happened between May 12 and 17, unfortunately he was kidnapped on Friday of that week, along with his wife and niece near Tepic, the state capital. The kidnapping took place at the hands of some people with uniforms very similar to those of The marine.

His partner and niece were released on May 19, but nothing was heard from him again. His family, who has already been affected by these events, is shocked because kidnappings have already occurred and his father was forced to be in prison and sell some land.

These disputes are presented because in the southern state, the place of Rivera Nayarit, they are areas that are highly desired by tourism and this causes land prices to rise. Leading many to want to seize the land and remove the residents at all costs in the place, there are more and more territorial disputes with high rates of violence.

Although it is true that two months after his disappearance, no one spoke and in an interview with the president with the governor, the journalist Patricia Aguilar, who complained to the president for the young man who trusted him but did not receive relevant help.
