Third Expert Study at Cocula Dump Neither Confirms Nor Denies PGR's Hypothesis Aristegui Noticias
go to original April 4, 2016

In light of the conclusions of the third expert study released by the Attorney General's Office (PGR) and fire expert Ricardo Damián Torres, the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team (EAAF) repeated its results expressed through comprehensive and multidisciplinary expert opinion given to the PGR on February 9, 2016, and its readiness and technical capacity to discuss and corroborate these conclusions through the mechanisms provided by the law.

Based on the conclusions released by Damián Torres, in the sense that more research is still needed to confirm scientifically whether it is possible to carry out the incineration of 43 adult human bodies, the Argentine forensic experts pointed out that this

    "then implies that for the moment there is no conclusive answer from the panel of fire experts about whether or not the incineration of 43 students was possible on the night of September 26-27, 2014; therefore, for the moment, such a conclusion neither confirms nor denies the PGR's hypothesis."

The EAAF explains that it is not explained if a large-scale event such as the one alluded to could be related to the event of the disappearance of the Ayotzinapa students, as the Attorney General's Office maintains, nor does it shed light on what it considers to be "a controlled, large-scale fire event."
