The migrants viacrucis

TENOSIQUE, Tabasco.- Central American stay near the railroad station in Tenosique, Tabasco, where they wait the arrival of "La Bestia". In Tenosique some of them contract "walkers", "coyotes" or "polleros" who guide them into the United States border, a path controlled by the criminal group Los Zetas, dedicated to drug trafficking extortion and kidnapping. They should also pay an obligatory fee of around 100 and 300 USD to local criminal groups under threat of being thrown down. (Photo: Prometeo Lucero)
