Tragic Ending: Missing Girl Found Dead, Community Demands Justice

Ten-year-old Perla Alison, who vanished last Friday after leaving home to buy candy, was found dead four days later in an abandoned lot near the Constitución de 1917 metro station in Mexico City.

Her disappearance sparked a massive search, with volunteers, police, and social media users racing to find her. But on Tuesday, a neighbor reported a foul odor near a rundown building — leading to the heartbreaking discovery of Perla’s body, showing signs of violence.

Authorities have launched a femicide investigation, citing possible physical and sexual abuse. Security footage and witness statements are being reviewed as the hunt for suspects intensifies.

Perla’s death has sparked national outrage, with activists and citizens demanding justice and better protection for girls and women. In her neighborhood, mourners have created a small memorial, vowing to remember her and push for accountability.

Her family remains devastated, calling for swift justice as the investigation continues.
