Mexican Cartel Kidnapped Thieves and Cut Off Their Hands

Apparently inspired by Sharia Law, a Mexican cartel kidnapped a bunch of thieves, and punished them the way old Islamic law teaches to punish thieves – by cutting their hands off. Though in this case, the cartel went a step further and tattooed on the victim’s foreheads and forearms messages, such as “Soy Ratero” or “I’m a Thief“.

The message on the narcomensaje reads:

Esto nos pasó por rateros. Por no respetar mujeres, menores, si con esto no entienden putos roba carros, roba motos, cadenas, celulares, conejeros, en general doble putos, lacras, mata menores. Atentamente Grupo Antiratas

Translation of the message:

This is what happened to us for being thieves. For not respecting women, minors. If with this you don’t understand, these bitches steal cars, steal motorcycles, chains, cellular phones, they are conejeros, house thieves and thieves in general. And double goes for killers of minors.

Attention: Elite Group anti-rats.

I was explained by a Mexican friend that term “conejero” is used to address the type of muggers that lurk around ATMs or banks, and and assault people after coming out.

According to Mexican authorities, six people were found with mutilated hands and another beaten to death in Tlaquepaque, in the state of Jalisco. According to the municipal police, they were attacked by a self-styled “group of elite anti-rats” in alleged retaliation for stealing.

“So far the authorities have not issued a position regarding this alleged group that says chases thieves” says report from the Mexican daily El Universal.

According to local media reports, the injured were rushed to various hospitals in the metropolitan area of Guadalajara, capital of Jalisco, to receive necessary medical care.

A Nigerian man, Olumide Olaniyan, has raised alarm after spotting another man believed to be a civilian, pictured above, roaming the streets in Nyanya, Abuja with an AK47 hung on his body. Read what Olumide wrote below I was driving along Mararaba-Nyanya road this morning. I saw this man with a gun that looks like AK-47 or an automatic gun, I initially thought he is a security personnel, but, his dress, shoes and overall shabby look suggests otherwise. I was tempted to go ask him about his ID card and why he was such a psychological violence to onlookers.
