(EFE). -A migrant “Via Crucis” agreed with the National Institute of Migration (INM) the regularization of approximately 3,500 migrants who left Tapachula and traveled about 60 kilometers to Villa Comaltitlán, in the same Mexican state of Chiapas.
With this agreement between authorities of the Mexican Government and the migrants, the migrant caravan that sought to transit to Mexico City, the capital of the country, in an irregular manner, is dissolved.
In the morning, the Secretary of the Interior, Adán Augusto, assured that there would be “free transit” for the caravan that left with thousands of migrants from the southern border last week, despite the protests of foreigners.
For single men and women, the granting of Multiple Migratory Forms (FMM) was accepted for a period of 45 days, which will allow them to transit the country without legal problems.
In an assembly by show of hands, from the central park of Villa Comaltitlán, in Chiapas, southern Mexico, the migrant community accepted the proposal to receive Visas for Humanitarian Reasons for women with children.
Meanwhile, for single men and women, the granting of Multiple Migratory Forms (FMM) was accepted, for a period of 45 days, which will allow them to transit without legal problems through the country.
The director of Pueblos Sin Fronteras, Irineo Mujica, stressed that the most important thing about this agreement is that people will transit and be able to reach their destination.
“It’s good that the INM has decided to grant these documents, because it really is what is needed to stop being a Tapachula prison,” he considered.
Separately, the Beta group and the child protection officers (OPI) began the censuses in the central park of the southern municipality of Chiapas, while they set up a temporary shelter in an alternate room to proceed to grant documents.
“In the case of minors and family nuclei, they must be channeled to the DIF, so that the Office of the Attorney for the Defense of Minors can resolve their situation. The National Institute of Migration (INM) will immediately comply with the resolution “.
The immigration authorities also announced that they will not provide buses for the mobility of migrants, although they stressed that they will be able to move by their own means and with the immigration document that allows them to transit through the country legally.

Dulce Gutiérrez, a Honduran migrant, was the first woman in the group to receive their identity cards and passports in order to register their data and begin the process of granting their documents that will allow them to be legally in Mexico.
“They asked me for my passport, my son’s birth certificate and how many people we were. This census is good for not continuing to walk and to be able to climb higher. We don’t have money, but we’re not going to be thrown away either,” he said.
The Honduran migrant, Samuel Sánchez, pointed out that the regularization “is good, but there are many who want to continue in a caravan to go together to reach Mexico City without risks and without setbacks.”
This Central American migrant, who sewed his lips shut in the Chiapas town of Huixtla, stressed that what they want is to leave Chiapas to be able to cross Mexican territory and reach the northern border. The goal is to work and give his family a better future in an attempt to achieve the “American dream.”
