More than 100,000 people marched through Argentina's capital city on Thursday to protest crime, shouting "Justice! Justice!" in one of the country's largest demonstrations in years.
Argentines lit thousands of white candles outside Congress and held up photos of victims of the recent surge in ransom kidnappings, street holdups and robberies that has become an overriding concern in this South American nation of 36 million people.
Many left work early to join the protest, and thousands more turned out for smaller demonstrations in cities across Argentina.
Juan Carlos Blumberg, whose 23-year-old son, Axel, was killed last week after being seized by kidnappers demanding a ransom, led the large but peaceful protest.
