“Sol Prendido” for Borderland Beat


Twelve heavily armed men dressed in tactical clothing stand behind two seated captives. One of the enslaved men is semi nude, next to him sits a bald and fully naked individual. The undressed man is El Exterminador, a local drug pusher within the state of Veracruz. 
For this broadcast the captured narco trafficker will narrate before the camera the culprits who sponsored his existence. Along with the people killed that lead to his downfall. 
Their subsequent execution takes place off camera. Both of the men’s bodies were found by the authorities next to the Ajajalpan river near the community of La Vega. A narco message with threatening words for the criminals in the area was found next to them. 

Video translation is as follows:

Sicario: What’s your name and moniker?

Captive: My name is Jose Aliza Lopez, they call me El Exterminador. 

Sicario: What do you do for a living?

Captive: I sell crystal meth and weed. 

Sicario: Why did you ambush the State Police commander?

Captive: He was interrupting my affairs. 

Sicario: Who gave you the heads up on this matter?

Captive: It was the municipal policemen. 

Sicario: And why is that?

Captive: Because I have them on my payroll. 

Sicario: How many people have you killed?

Captive: I can’t even remember anymore. 

Sicario: Where do you sell your drugs?

Captive: In the municipality of Zozocolpo.

Sicario: Who’s responsible for disappearing the women?

Captive: It was me. 

Sicario: Who is the boss of the sierra?

Sicario: Townspeople of Zozocolpo, we’ve finally returned from our hunt. And we present to you these two scumbags. We are the absolute mob of El Señor de Los Números. 

Hitmen all scream: We are the absolute mob for the Lord of The Numbers.
