People protest outside the school of seven-year old Fatima, who went missing on February 11 and whose body was discovered last weekend inside a plastic rubbish bag, in Mexico City. The sign reads 'Machismo kills, rapes and murders'
The killing of a seven-year-old girl on the southern outskirts of Mexico City has stoked rising anger about brutal slayings of women, including one found stabbed to death and skinned earlier this month.
The city prosecutor's office said on Monday that investigators identified a body found over the weekend as that of Fatima, a grade-school student who was taken by a stranger on Februaury 11. By law, prosecutors do not give the full name of victims.
Her body was found wrapped in a bag and abandoned in a rural area on Saturday and was identified by genetic testing. The cause of death has not been released. Five people have been questioned in the case, and video footage of her abduction exists.
