Migrants describe inhuman conditions at Mexican detention center

An immigration detention center in Mexico is being denounced for its inhuman conditions after migrants complained of sleeping inside cramped cells, and hallways and dining rooms infested with rats. The Siglo XXI holding facility (inset), said to be the largest immigration detention facility in Latin America, is where most of the migrants that cross into southern Mexico end up once they are apprehended by authorities. Located in the city of Tapachula, near the border with Guatemala, it's a secretive place off-limits to public scrutiny where cellphones are confiscated and journalists aren't allowed inside. Pictured left are Cuban migrants complaining after Mexican authorities raided the hotel; pictured right are migrant children sleeping at the main square.
