I purchased bitcoins from someone from LocalBitcoins for cash. Seller took cash $2000 and sent me bitcoins from his Blockchain wallet.
Now its 5 days but the transaction is still unconfirmed. Seller has vanished and his mobile number unreachable.
Two questions:
1- can he somehow cancel this transaction or take back those coins he sent me?
2- is it normal to 5 or more days delay in transaction confirmation on 120sat/byte fees?
My transaction:

The payer can double spend the bitcoins until the transaction has been securely mined (e.g. in six blocks). You might want to try accelerating the transaction.
