Music teacher is arrested for strangling hostage conductor
mainMexican police have claimed a breakthrough in the murder of Luis Fernando Luna Guarneros, who was found strangled to death in Yucatan, last week.
A music teacher from Merida, a man aged 30, has been arrested as the main suspect. He has been identified by his initials ‘as Rafael MCP’.
Three accomplices are being questioned on suspicion of helping him attempt to dispose of the body. The motive appears to be money. The victim was made to give up his bank cards and pressured to disclose his pin numbers. Local report here.
And the first posting of this stated how “lawless” Mexico is. This arrest has more than a whiff of irony in the face of that.
