Price of a federal deputy's head: 300,000 pesos. Murderers caught.

300,000 pesos, or about $22,000: This is apparently the price for murdering a Federal Deputy in Mexico.
It seems Mexican authorities have actually captured the killers of PRI deputy Moisés Villanueva de la Luz, who was recently found murdered in Guerrero. According to the state prosecutor, four men carried out murder of Villanueva and his assistant, yet the mastermind was apparently a town councilor of Tlapa de Comonfort, whose name is still withheld, as he is still on the loose.

Yet who ordered the councilor to arrange for the deputy's murder? .

From Milenio

PRI big shots gathered to express their support for embattled PRI president Humberto Moreira Valdés. As Milenio observed, "735 years of PRI are backing Moreira," referring to the collective age of this old-boy network - I mean, the "New PRI."
