The account offered by the Mexican Attorney General's Office of how killers burned the bodies of 43 students abducted Sept. 26 in the southern state of Guerrero "has no support in facts or in physical, chemical or natural phenomena," a group of scientists said Thursday.
Jorge Antonio Montemayor, a research physicist at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, told a press conference that the evidence provided by the AG's office indicates the bodies were incinerated in a modern crematorium, not the rural dump authorities say was the site of the massacre.
Attorney General Jesus Murillo Karam announced on Nov. 7 that the students - including some still alive - were set ablaze at a dump outside the town of Cocula.
The fire raged for some 14 hours, Murillo Karam said, citing statements from three suspects in custody.
But if the killers used wood for the fire, they would have needed some 33 tons of logs, implying premeditation and raising the question of where they would have bought that quantity of wood, Montemayor said Thursday.
The Cocula dump is also not big enough to accommodate a wood-fueled blaze capable of incinerating 43 bodies, the scientist said.
