Hundreds of Mexican mothers of disappeared urgently demand solutions | Video

Mexico City, May 10 (EFE).- Hundreds of mothers of disappeared persons in Mexico on Monday demanded urgent solutions to the many ongoing crimes of that kind that took their loved ones from them, noting that, despite it being Mother's Day, for them "there's no longer any May 10."

"We came to demand (a solution), because for us there's no longer any May 10. I have a disappeared son and they destroyed a whole family," said Maria de Jesus Gonzalez, whose son disappeared in 2010 when he was abducted from a party along with two other young men in Torreon, in the northern state of Coahuila.

Like her, the families of 86,663 people missing since 2006 are experiencing this iconic date for most Mexicans as a reminder that their children are no longer with them and of the harshness of the monumental crisis of Mexico's disappeared citizenry. (Camera: AMERICA NERI).
