All of my staff keep telling me that there are people going around the poorer neighborhoods who are snatching young children. The children are then evidently taken somewhere where they are killed and then various organs are extracted. At first I thought this was the usual old wives tale, but I keep hearing the same story. One of them showed me a photo of a funeral that took place yesterday for a young child who had been snatched and was then returned, dead, with no eyes. Last night I was having dinner and the staff in the restaurant were telling me the same story. Supposedly two children were snatched yesterday, one in Cienega and one in Guandules, both very poor barrios in the capital. The gangs evidently operate using a black jeepeta, and in one of the cases yesterday they shot a woman who was walking along with her child.
Has anyone else heard about this? It sounds absolutely horrific if there is a grain of truth in it. I would really prefer not to believe this, but I just wonder why so many people keep saying the same story.
