A video taken by a cell phone shows the complicity on the part of members of the Municipal Police of Escuinapa and the State Preventative Police with a group of armed men who execute a man from the community of Cristo Rey, located in the municipality of Escuinapa, Sinaloa, this past Wednesday.
The video shows how the victim is taken away from his home by at least two individuals and later three shots are heard.
Just before the homicide, agents belonging to the municipal and state preventative police are shown just outside the home, as they are fleeing the location and getting into their patrol vehicles as the armed sicariosarrive.
Moments later in the video, it is shown how two individuals take a man out of a house, then take him near one of the trucks, while the woman recording the video details what is happening.
The exact moment of the crime isn’t recorded because the phone is aimed across the street, but three gunshots are heard. Immediately, the video aims back to where the trucks and sicariosare.
It was reported that the police have been arrested and brought before the public prosecutor.
According to local media, the police chief stated in a news conference that six members, four of them state police, and two municipal police, have been detained and brought before the state attorney general to continue and investigate the case.
The video shown is extremely violent.
