The wife of Villa Hidalgo, Jalisco, Mayor Jaime Cruz Villalpando was kidnapped by members of the Jalisco Nueva Generación Cartel (CJNG) in Aguascalientes on Friday.
Brenda Marisol Montañez Saucedo was leaving a gated residential community when she was abducted. After Montañez Saucedo was taken, CJNG contacted Villalpando, demanding he replace Villa Hidalgo's current municipal Public Security Chief with a person of their choosing.
