Mexico City, Jan 4 (IANS/EFE) Mexico deported nearly 50,000 Central American migrants in 2011, a government report said.
A total of 46,716 Central Americans were deported between Jan 1 and Nov 30, 2011, said the National Migration Institute.
The majority -- 41,215 -- were men and nearly half -- around 23,560 -- were from Guatemala.
All migrants were deported in an 'easy, orderly, dignified and safe' manner, it said.
The Central Americans accounted for 74 percent of the foreigners who went through Mexican immigration facilities.
The remaining foreigners were either given asylum, granted humanitarian visas or sent home using different repatriation systems.
An estimated 300,000 Central Americans undertake a hazardous journey across Mexico each year on their way to the US. The journey is a dangerous one, with criminals and corrupt Mexican officials preying on the migrants.
