200 Bolivian mourners were angry enough to setup barriers to block the police. They captured and tied a 17-year-old suspect of the murder and rape of a 35-year-old woman, then buried him alive in her grave.
The police named Santos Ramos a suspect of the crime, and the news reached the mourners were at a funeral ceremony.
When the inhabitants of La Paz found out that Santos Ramos was responsible, they found him and tied him up to kill him at the Leandra Arias Janco's grave.
The mob allegedly threw Ramos into the hole where Janco was buried, BBC reports. They filled the hole with dirt, and the murder and rape suspect was buried alive.
La Paz is a small town located near the Colquechacha municipality in the Potosi district of Bolivia.
Angry suspect-revenging mobs are not uncommon in the mostly unpopulated sectors of Bolivia, BCC observed. Many of the suspects are burned alive, stoned alive, or even chased all the way to another city.
Some say that it is due to the lack of police and other authorities in the region. Earlier this year, a Bolivian police officer was mistaken for a thief and became the subject of a lynching.
