MEXICO CITY - Parents of the 43 missing Mexican students have refused to believe that their children were killed and incinerated in a garbage dumpster, vowing to carry out protests demanding they be returned alive.

On Monday, the parents traveled to the home of Ezequiel Mora Chora, the father of Alexander Mora Venancio, one of the missing students whose remains were positively identified by an Austrian laboratory.

Mexican Attorney General Jesus Murillo confirmed that the DNA taken from one of the 17 charred skeletal remains recovered from the site where the students' bodies were reportedly burned was that of Alexander.

Murillo said that the positive DNA identification, coupled with other evidence and statements by the accused, could help reinforce a faithful reconstruction of the incident.

...But the parents refuse to believe the story and are demanding the return of their children alive.
