Women chat outside the house of slain siblings Miss Honduras World 2014 Maria Jose Alvarado and Sofia, in Santa Barbara November 19, 2014. The bodies of Maria Jose Alvarado, 19, and her sister Sofia, 23, were found buried near a river in the mountainous region of Santa Barbara in western Honduras, said Leandro Osorio, head of the criminal investigation unit. The sisters went missing November 13, when they were seen leaving a party in a car without a license plate in Santa Barbara, a coffee-growing region where drug gangs are active. Alvarado, a student who aspired to become a career diplomat, had been due to take part in the Miss World pageant that starts on Thursday and culminates in the final in London on December 14.
