Al Jazeera
Female groups in two Mexican cities have taken to the streets in protest, demanding justice for the Salvadoran woman.
The death of Victoria Esperanza Salazar – a Salvadoran migrant who died in Mexico after a policewoman put her knee on her back for several minutes – continued to evoke outrage on Tuesday, after additional details of her life and how she died surfaced. Dozens of women in the sprawling capital Mexico City and in Tulum, the city where Salazar lived, took to the streets in protest. Women chanted, waved signs, scrawled graffiti and held “die ins” on Monday evening, demanding justice. Protesters also took the streets of El Salvador’s capital, San Salvador.More Related News
