A woman reacts as she sees the dead body of her son at a crime scene in the town of Mejicanos October 10, 2014. United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said on Friday he was concerned by the violence in Central America and El Salvador, which has seen a sharp spike in murders and police assassinations over the last year. Visiting the poor Central American country to celebrate the 23rd anniversary of the peace accords that ended a 12-year civil war that killed around 75,000 people, Ban urged El Salvador to remember that spirit of reconciliation as it grapples with a rising spate of gang warfare.
