Since August 5, nothing is known of the whereabouts of Adriel Jese Velador García, 21 years old, originally from Cuisillos, in Tala. He was last seen at the new Central trucking station in Tlaquepaque, where he went to catch a bus to the country's center to train as a private security guard, but then contact with him was lost. His family believes he may have been recruited by crime.

The anguish of the Velador Garcia family led them to file a missing person's report last Thursday and just this Sunday night the State Search Commission issued a search warrant for him.

Daniela, his sister told in an interview with EL OCCIDENTAL, that on the afternoon of Monday, August 5, her brother told her that he was going to a friend's house in Guadalajara, because the next day he had a work appointment at 7:00 a.m., but due to the distance from Cuisillos to Guadalajara he could not make it on time, so he preferred to stay with him and arrive on time.

He was supposed to return home on Tuesday, but he did not, he only had a conversation with his father by message, to whom he said he was fine. Until Wednesday he had brief conversations with his father by message and then he did not connect again, he stopped answering.

In the messages she indicated that she was going to the State of Mexico to train for a job as a private security guard and stated that she had not been told the name of the supposed company.

On Thursday his family found out that on Tuesday Adriel Jese uploaded a video to Tik-Tok from the new central trucking station in Tlaquepaque.

As he began posting on social networks, they realized that he held a conversation with a friend, whom he asked to report him as missing if he stopped responding.

“Where my brother tells her 'If I don't talk to you in three days you report me', he sends her his location in real-time and she says, 'How did she report you, where are you'; she says 'here I am in the location, I'm going to Mexico to see if they don't kidnap me, report me as missing'. That is the only capture they send me”.

Following this, the family believes that Adriel Jese was recruited by crime through the lure of a good job.

“The Prosecutor's Office told me that it is most likely, because it is the same modus operandi they have, because they say that he left by his own means, because he was going to a job interview. He just wanted to work like everyone else, to earn more money. So far, with the little they have, they think it was that, because of his age, it fits”.

Because he reported before his disappearance that he was going to the State of Mexico, the search has been extended to other states in the country, but so far nothing is known about Adriel Jese.
