Mexico City, December 10 (RHC)-- Dozens of Central American mothers whose children went missing in Mexico while attempting to flee violence in their home countries are now traversing Mexico on a journey to search for their missing children.

The three-week-long Caravan of Central American Mothers includes women from El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala and Nicaragua. Their children are among the tens of thousands who disappear each year along what experts call one of the most deadly migration routes in the world.

Speaking at a press conference in Mexico City, Lourdes Sauzo, whose son was killed in Mexico, spoke about his body being returned to her in pieces. She said that after more than two years, she received most, but not all, of her son's body.
