A WOMAN hailed as a heroine for fearlessly standing up to Mexico’s brutal drug cartels has been found tortured and beaten to death at the side of a road.
Dr Maria Santos Gorrostieta, 36, the former mayor of Tiquicheo, west of Mexico City, had survived two assassination attempts and the murder of her first husband.
The mother of three and her second husband, Nereo Delgado Patinoran, were abducted nearly two weeks ago. He is still missing.
Dr Gorrostieta pleaded with her captors for her young daughter to be spared, the Daily Mail reported.
She was abducted right after dropping her daughter off at school. She begged the drug gang to leave alone the little girl, who cried for her mother as she was driven away,
Dr Gorrostieta was killed by a blow to the head. But she had also been stabbed, her legs and hands had been bound and her waist and chest were covered in burns, suggesting she had been tortured.
Her body was found by residents of San Juan Tararameo who were heading to work in the fields.
