Two Navy Soldiers Who Were Kidnapped In Zapopan Found Alive In Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco

"HEARST" and "Sol Prendido" for Borderland Beat 


The two kidnapped Navy soldiers were found alive by police officers in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco.


Milenio newspaper has confirmed that the two SEMAR soldiers have been located by law enforcement. As further confirmation, Infobae is also reporting that the Jalisco State Prosecutor's Office (FGE) confirmed to them that the two soldiers have been found. 

On the night of November 19, 2021, the two soldiers, who had been kidnapped earlier this week in Zapopan, were found in the Educación neighborhood of Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco.


Journalist Lupillo Arce, writing for Tribuna de la Bahia, gives the most detailed account of the discovery. He writes that municipal police officers were in the middle of transporting a detainee to the nearest hospital after an alleged assault and vehicle ramming incident that occurred on Francisco Medina Ascencio Avenue. 






While driving in their patrol car to the hospital on Politécnico Nacional Avenue, with the detainee in the back, the officers were flagged down by two concerned citizens who had observed two people kneeling down, seemingly in distress. 


The police officers stopped and approached the reported location which was at the entrance to soccer fields. Upon approaching the two, the officers noticed that the kneeling people were handcuffed and their eyes were blindfolded. In video footage, one of the victims appears to be a man and another appears to be a woman.

After removing the blindfolds, the two kneeling people told the officers that they were SEMAR soldiers and that they had just been released after being held captive for four days. Immediately the municipal officers radioed up the discovery of the two missing soldiers and requested the support of more personnel on scene.

Several other patrol vehicles arrived and first responders determined that neither victim had suffered serious injuries. In videos of the incident, the female soldier can be heard saying "We are fine, they didn't do anything to us," as she is being led by a municipal police officer to a patrol car. 


Navy personnel also traveled to the location to help the two soldiers and transferred them within a Navy ambulance to facilities to receive medical attention at a Naval Hospital. The FGE stated that it will continue to investigate their kidnapping in order to apprehend and prosecute the perpetrators.

Attorney General's Press Release 

An excerpt of the Attorney General's official press release reads as follows: 

Members of the Secretary of the Navy who were kidnapped last Monday in the Valle Real neighborhood of the municipality of Zapopan were located in the municipality of Puerto Vallarta.


Municipal police officers who were performing a service, noticed that two people were kneeling down with their faces covered while passing by the place.


When questioned about their situation, both identified themselves as members of the Secretariat of the Navy (SEMAR) who had been deprived of their freedom in the metropolitan area of Guadalajara [Zapopan] and who had been released there a short time ago.


Elements of the SEMAR (NR: located 200 meters away) arrived at the place where they were located and took charge of both elements who were taken to receive medical attention.


Now that both elements have been located, the Jalisco Prosecutor's Office will continue with the investigation in order to obtain evidence that will lead to the identification of those who deprived them of their freedom.



Background 


On November 15, 2021, two soldiers who were assigned as staff (one as a driver, another as a secretary) to a naval captain from the Eighth Naval Zone were abducted. Both were sitting aboard a white Jeep Wrangler that was parked in a Walmart parking lot in the city of Zapopan, Jalisco. 


While the pair were waiting for the Navy captain who was shopping inside the store, they were approached by armed subjects who arrived in multiple vehicles and kidnapped. The Jeep was later found abandoned and their cellphones were both turned off at 10:39 pm.

Federal authorities have stated that they suspect the kidnapping was done as an act of retaliation for the arrest of Rosalinda Gonzalez Valencia, the wife of Nemesio Oseguera, alias “El Mencho”, the leader of the Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG). Laisha Michelle Oseguera González, a daughter of Mencho, was allegedly behind the abduction.

  1. Just as the pressure applied in Sinaloa ended up with Oviedo release this time the pressure the government applied led to the release of the captives alive which is a miracle!
    Also their was a 3rd Semar agent that went to the grocery store...my dos pesos are on that agent setting his partners up.

    1. I would put my 5 pesos on that theory. Seems correct as they were dressed as civilians and driving a civilian viechle when they were picked up. The captain probably set them up.

  3. Sounds like if Laisha was responsible for orchestrating their abduction then she probably did it without her father's approval. I suppose if Mencho had given prior approval these soliders would not have been released alive. Makes sense because who's one of the only ones who could act out of anger like this( orchestrating the kidnapping the soldiers) and not be killed for not getting approval beforehand.... The Leader's daughter. I take it Mencho scolded her for acting without his authority but deep down probably likes that she's got that brutal mentality like him. I take it she acted out of anger that her biological mother was arrested and knew that daddy's little girl won't get any real punishment unlike anyone else in the CJNG. I've heard people talk about how Mencho is always in close proximity to his wife so if that's true then it makes sense as why he released them after the "search and destroy CJNG" show the government put on after their kidnapping. I could be absolutely wrong but that's just my opinion

  4. These two are extremely lucky. Blood is thicker than water which we saw when the Chapitos were kidnapped and Mayo retaliated by having Menchito kidnapped in prison. Go after their families seems to be the ticket in these situations.

    1. It wasn't Mencho or anyone from Jalisco. It was Mochomito they say. Chapitos' first cousin. He hates them to death. Sinaloan's and Tapatios also beef over turf in Guadalajara. Zapopan is CJNG stronghold and Guadalajara city has a lot of Sinaloan presence still. El Aguila Beltran is at the front against NG supposedly.....

    2. Yes that would make sense 11:44 but i still think they pressed Menchos son thinking mencho was involved. then mencho got involved and is the actual true savers of Chapitos

  5. i like your output..it really can be many things.. i believe senor mencho agreed/orchestrated the kidnapping & i feel like he didn't have them killed because they wasn't corrupted like most and maybe got some valuable information from them that saved their asses! because the captain was in the store, so the captain knew they was gonna get kidnapped and maybe knew that they were gonna be ok because mencho is a honorable man, he wont kill you as long as your innocent or at least don't get involved in things that transmits abdication to patriotism and the sovereignty of the hard working ppl or/& innocents etc
    its crazy how this man is not the government, "even though he was a police officer before the king he is now", he have crazy resources like it blows my mind that he send his recruits to training camps that have real ex military from USA or central America training these guys ..& we all know most military around the world receive training from USA anyway lmaooo its crazy man im pretty sure el Mencho went to get sum training somewhere as well in the past. I read that he is a fit intelligent disciplined man
    this is besides most guys he hire as his sicarios are already trained that were ex or even are currently still in the military or cops and all that...this man is a whole different breed im telling you they will MARK MY WORDS make a movie/show about this man dead or alive...his story is different from all of these narcos
    i can say the only same storyt they all have is that they were born poor and shyt like that but mencho iss in the history books
    again my humble opinion
    SORRY for the long story guys
    blame it on maryjane hahaha Stay Blessed

    1. You're right I have heard that he's fit and disiplined.

      There are rumors that he receives high flux hemodialysis.

      When you sick you do 1 of 2 things, 1 you do nada and don't give a shit because changing habits is dificil.

      2 you sober up and do everything you can with diet and exercise to live longer.

      I no Jalisco nuthugger, puro AMLO!

      I heard that Mencho eats no salt and limited beef, mas pescado. He not vegetarian but eats mostly vegtables. Cada dia hes doing 100s of pushups, levantar pesos, y poquito boxeo Tailandia como El Senor Sicario 006
