Women in Mexico are totally and utterly defenseless, according to an activist | Video | CNN

Patricia Olamendi, a member of the Network We Have Other Data, considers that the Mexican authorities have no interest in protecting the integrity of women, and that therefore in Mexico they live in a state of absolute defenselessness.

For her part, María Elena Ríos, a saxophonist who survived an acid attack, asks officials to remember their ethics as professionals in charge of providing justice.

The Government of Mexico has said that it works to eradicate violence against women, and to achieve respect and justice.
