TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - On Sunday, in their final telephone conversation, Paola Yamileth told her cousin she feared for her life: "I feel death here and I am afraid they are going to kill me."

Two days after that call, Paola, 26, and her mother, Belinda, 46, were among the at least 46 women killed in a violent clash between gangs at the Honduran prison where they were both incarcerated.
