Description
A large crowd dressed in white gathers in Villagorgona for the funeral of 12-year-old Sofia Delgado, whose murder in southwestern Colombia sparked riots among the local population. "No child should have to go through this," says girl's mother. "She was a very sweet girl, very affectionate, playful, cheerful, loving," she adds.
Colombia has registered 375 homicides of minors so far this year, according to data from Medicina Legal up to August. Every two days, three children are murdered in the country. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
