Grieving friends and relatives of the murdered Miss Honduras beauty queen and her sister have said goodbye at a double funeral.
Maria Jose Alvarado,19, was shot twice in the back as she tried to flee after seeing her sister, Sofia, 23, shot by her jealous boyfriend, police say.
In heartbreaking scenes the sisters' mother,Teresa Muñoz, hugged the two wooden caskets after they were bought to her home at dawn.
More than 300 people attended the service, before the two women were buried in cement lined graves in a tiny cemetery near their hometown of Santa Barbara.
'We are going to miss you; you will live in our hearts forever,' said 26-year-old Corina Alvarado, the victims' elder sister.
Miss Alvarado and her sister Sofia were allegedly killed by Plutarco Antonio Ruiz - who flew into a jealous rage after seeing his girlfriend dance with another man.
Yesterday army soldiers and forensic teams recovered the bodies of the sisters buried in a river bank close to the spa where they disappeared six days ago.
