After a major march in Mexico City, the parents of the missing students said that they will continue searching for their sons and for justice for Ayotzinapa.

The parents of the 43 missing students, who were part of the Ayotzinapa teachers training college, said on Thursday that they will not stop in their search for justice, and that they will continue to look for their sons until they find them.

“We have such dignity and we are so brave that we are here tonight to tell you that we will continue until the ultimate consequences,” said one of the parents during a rally in Zocalo, Mexico's main square in front of the president’s National Palace.

“If they can not deal with this they better resign,” they added, referring to the Mexican authorities who have failed to find the students since the early morning of September 27, when they were reportedly abducted by muncipal police and handed over to the local criminal gang known as United Warrios or Guerreros Unidos.

The parents delivered speeches after a massive march which began in three different points of Mexico City gathering tens of thousands of people in Zocalo who claimed for justice. Even after the parents finished their rally, at around 20:15 (local time), thousands of more people kept pouring into the plaza.

The march was organized as part of a Global Action Day for Ayotzinapa, and gathered students, families, unions, NGO's, and even little kids. People in other Mexican states, and even in other countries, also rallied to demand justice and the appearance of the students.
