Pérez Merelles was snatched from his car Oct. 22 after a gang of heavily armed assailants blocked his vehicle and, in full view of witnesses, killed his bodyguard/driver, delivering a coup de grâce shot to the back of his head.

A ransom finally was paid and Pérez Merelles was released in good health, though sans the fingers.
