Inside the sweltering Tocoron prison, detainees expressed hope to their families outside, amidst the backdrop of a mass prisoner release following a national crackdown.
This recent mass release has seen at least 131 individuals freed from Tocoron prison, but it also leaves around 1,800 people still awaiting news of their loved ones.
The government's decision to release prisoners appears partly motivated by the desire to curry favor with the incoming Trump administration amid ongoing political tensions.
Most of the detainees have been charged with terrorism, but their families assert that these accusations are baseless and politically motivated.
