23 children abducted in Mexico rescued, but Dylan, an indigenous child, remains missing

Dylan's mom: "I never knew there were such bad people" According to the Chiapas State Attorney General's Office, 23 minors were rescued from a house in San Cristóbal de las Casas in southern Mexico. The children were being held in physically and psychologically abusive conditions after being kidnapped to work in the street trade. The authorities' operation was intended to locate Dylan, a two-year-old boy who disappeared in the same town. Mexico has a very serious problem of child slavery, says the Redim According to a report by the Network for Children's Rights in Mexico (Redim), by the end of 2019 an estimated 3.2 million children between the ages of 5 and 17 were working in economic activities that were not permitted or in unsuitable conditions. The director of Redim, Juan Martin Perez, explains the situation of children at the national level, in particular the case of the disappearance of Dylan, and the rescue of 23 minors in the state of Chiapas.
