"The National Citizens' Observatory for Femicide (OCNF), which groups 43 human rights and women's organisations, documented around 7,000 cases of rape in 10 of Mexico's 32 states in 2010. However, the real total is assumed to be much higher as rape is considered one of the most underreported crimes.
The average age of the victims was 26, the report adds.
In cities with high crime rates like Ciudad Juárez, invaded by drug cartels, the police and army troops, groups of men frequently seize girls and women from the streets, rape them, and release them – or toss their bodies in the desert or garbage dumps."
