For his part, the state president of the Citizen Movement, Adrián Wences Carrasco, had accused the mayor of the municipality, the PRI Timoteo Arce Solís, of being behind the kidnapping. The mayor’s wife, Rosa Jaimes, is Martínez’s rival in the mayoral elections of Cutzamala de Pinzón, a town of just 5,000 inhabitants nailed on the borders of Guerrero with the State of Mexico and Michoacán.
