Colombian intelligence service agents will train Mexican police in Nuevo León in combating kidnapping in the northern border state, bringing expertise from the world’s former kidnapping capital to the new titleholder.
In a planned series of meetings between law enforcement officials from the two nations, Colombians will also impart tactics on fighting organized crime and organizing policing efforts among various state agencies, reported Spanish news agency EFE.
The area has already had help from Israel and other nations, said the governor, José Natividad González. To date, more than fifty people have been kidnapped in Nuevo León, including a leader of a petroleum union, an ex-mayor and 28 workers of Mexican Petroleum.
