THE KIDNAPPING OF A CHILD - STORY

Pedro Luis, still without finishing his coffee, went to the garage to start the vehicle as he did every day, while waiting for the car to warm up, he went back to the kitchen to watch the news; and he poured himself another cup of coffee while his wife, Rosalía, finished arranging her four-year-old son, Fermín Alejandro, to take him to school and then Pedro Luis left her in his office. It was the morning routine from Monday to Friday.

Fermín was finishing breakfast while his mother told him to hurry because he was going to be late for school. Fermín Alejandro, was distracted with a toy that Pedro Luis had recently bought him, and which did not depart for a moment.

At 6:45 in the morning the family left from their residence for the school, while Pedro Luis drove. Rosalía made herself up by looking at herself in the rearview mirror; and she told her husband how happy she was for the business transaction that would take place that day, since she had managed to negotiate the sale of a property which was going to leave her very good earnings. Rosalia was a real estate agent.

In the back of the Fermín Alejandro vehicle, he watched `through the vehicle window. So they came to the school, where Rosalía got off to take Fermín Alejandro to the classroom as she does every day, without sensing what was about to happen in a few hours later.
A las12:00 pm, hora de salida del colegio, se presentó una señora de edad avanzada, quien conversó con la maestra y le entregó una carta, a la cual estaba firmada por la madre de Fermín Alejandro, con una fotocopia de su cédula de identidad, en la cual indicaba que debía entregarle el niño a esta señora, ya que a ella (Rosalía) se le había presentado una emergencia y no podía ir a retirarlo. La maestra revisó la carta y no vio mayor problema en entregarlo, dado que todo parecía estar excesivamente en regla. Fermín Alejandro subió junto a la señora a un vehículo el cual esperaba al frente del colegio.

Five minutes later Rosalía arrived at the school to look for her son Fermín Alejandro, and the teacher informed him what had happened, showing her the letter, signed by her with her identity card, which authorized the delivery of the child to the person who had gone to look for him.
Rosalia immediately ran desperately to the address, began to cry and scream. Pedro Luis, who was waiting for her outside the school, came in to see what was happening; When they found out what had happened, they immediately informed the police and from there the search for Fermín Alejandro began.

Immediately Fermín Alejandro's photographs were distributed, all the police bodies were informed quickly throughout the city so that all exits were closed. A large police operation in which all the vehicles were checked, but everything was unsuccessful nobody knew about Fermín Alejandro

At approximately 8:00 p.m., a call was received in the family family residence, in which a man indicated that the family should pay a large sum of money in dollars, so that they could see the child alive again, stressing that they should not report to the police, otherwise they would not see the child alive again. The police who had tapped the house phone, immediately tracked the call, but the plagiarists had called from a public telephone so it was not possible to locate them.

The next day at 11:00 AM. They returned to make another call in which indicated that if the police continued insisting on putting their noses in the case they were going to send the child in parts. Rosalía begged them please not to harm her son, that they would hand over the money, but that they would have time to gather them because they did not have that money, but what they would do everything possible to get it.

As the plagiarists demanded Rosalía and her husband Pero Luis, they took the money to the place where the plagiarists had indicated that it was delivered, they waited and waited hours after the agreement, but Fermín Alejandro did not appear anywhere.

So time began to pass and the police continued carrying out investigations began doing raids, began to investigate within the family and part of the group of friends of the family to go discarding suspects.

One night at approximately 10:00 pm, almost a month and a half after the kidnapping, in one place a vehicle was stopped for review, in which a couple with a child was traveling, which they alleged was their son and they took him to the doctor because I was sick. The police found the attitude of these people very suspicious, but what caught their attention was that the boy was asleep and tried to wake him up and the boy did not react. Immediately they proceeded to verify their documents, but did not show any that would allow them to prove that they were the child's parents. They alleged that in the rush they had left the house, to take the child to the doctor, they had forgotten.
While they were being interrogated, one of the cops. When reviewing the photographs, he corroborated that the child you were carrying, was Fermín Alejandro, the kidnapped child that the media talked about so much, proceeding to the immediate arrest of these two people.

There was a great commotion in the city, when it was verified that Fermín Alejandro had appeared alive, his parents arrived at the police station where they were given information, that the child had already been transferred to the hospital because he was unconscious, given that These people had drugged him to be able to move him. Rosalía fell to her knees crying and thanked God and the miraculous virgin, because she had asked him to do the miracle, that her son should appear safe and sound; and the little Madonna had heard her prayers.

When they arrived at the hospital and Fermín Alejandro had been attended by the doctors, he began to recover the knowledge, Rosalía and Pedro Luis, embraced him and cried bitterly when holding his son in his arms. Fermín Alejandro who was clinging to the Toys that his father had given him, only managed to say:

Daddy, they broke my toy.

Later it was learned that the couple was a member of a gang that was engaged in kidnapping children and then sell them out of the country. Only this time with the operation that was implemented, almost immediately plagiarism, did not have time to mobilize the child out of town and disappear, as has happened in other cases.

The police managed to arrest other members of this gang, where they managed to capture a woman, who confessed, that she had obtained a photocopy of Rosalia's identity card, from a contract signed by her for the sale of a house; and that's how the trap was set up to elaborate the letter and to be able to plagiarize Fermín Alejandro, in the school. The plagiaries had been studying for several days the routine of the family, time of arrival and departure from the school.
You have to be very observant and take all possible precautions with our children, especially in schools. All possible measures must be taken to prevent cases like this from being repeated. Authorizations must be established in writing of which persons may withdraw children in case of emergencies, and these must be stipulated in a strict compliance manner.

The kidnapping of people is one of the practices, the most terrible and unscrupulous practices that exist in the world, dismembering families, by separating their loved ones from their family bosom,
