Mexico City, Mar 26 (EFE).- About 100 women gathered for a march on Friday in Mexico City, amid grief and frustration over the murder of Nicole, a seven-year-old girl, in the central state of Hidalgo."She said she wanted to be a pilot. She saw an airplane pass by and said 'I want to be there.' Now she is flying very high, but not in the way we would like," said the girl's sister at the iconic Zócalo of the capital, surrounded by a large circle of women who yelled "You are not alone."

SPOKEPERSON OF FEMINIST GROUP MUJERES LUNARES.- We came here and we are collecting provisions for Nicole's family. We want to make as much noise as possible, we can no longer shut up. Unfortunately, children suffer from a lot of violence and we can no longer let this happen. 2. NICOLE'S COUSIN, FER.- We want to find all those involved. As they said, it wasn't just one person in this. There are many of them involved. We do not know for sure if there were three or more. So we want this person to tell us the truth. He has already been detained and he is already here anyway. So just tell us the truth and help us end this process because it has been difficult. Very, very difficult. 3. NICOLE'S SISTER.- She said she wanted to be a pilot. She saw an airplane pass by and said 'I want to be there.' Now she is flying very high, but not in the way we would like. This is all so sad.
