WHERE WAS GUTIÉRREZ?
 IF YOU BELIEVE THE LETTER HE SENT the Universal newspaper,
Fernando Gutiérrez Barrios, Mexico's most knowledgeable intelligence
expert, was "outside Mexico enjoying vacation." If you believe rumors that
started circulating when he dropped out of public sight two weeks ago, he
is one of the country's highest-ranking politicians ever kidnapped. That
version goes like this: Gutiérrez was driving in the capital after lunch
when two cars cut him off and eight heavily armed men whisked him
away. By Friday Gutiérrez was reportedly back safe at home, but he had
still not been seen in public, and his family remained mum.
It is common for families in Mexico to avoid publicity in kidnapping cases
and simply pay whatever ransom is demanded. Police are notoriously
inept at rescue attempts. As in Colombia and Brazil, kidnapping has
become rampant in Mexico, with hundreds of cases a year, an American
businessman help for eight days was released just last week after his
family paid an undisclosed ransom. However, the abduction of Gutiérrez
would be a new twist. It seems likely that he would be targeted not for his
wealth but for what knows. For four decades he worked in Mexican
intelligence, rising as high as minister of governing, the cabinet post in
charge of internal security, under former president Carlos Salinas. In
other words, he knew state secrets, the sort of information that would be
of use to drug lords, politicians and guerrillas. Editorials are already
referring to him as a "political kidnapee."
