The Stream - Mexico's disappeared: Searching for the Ayotzinapa students (Al Jazeera English)

Parents and relatives of 43 students who disappeared 18 months ago said that they would revive mobilizations until they know the truth about their loved ones.

Protesters gathered in front of the Attorney General’s office in Mexico City to voice rejection of the findings of the latest government report.

The results of a third investigation by experts named by the government supported the official version of the Ayotzinapa College students’ disappearance at the hands of Iguala local police on Sept 26, 2014, before being handed over to gang members who killed them and burned their bodies.

The parents of the missing students rejected outright the results. “We will protest until we overthrow President Enrique Pena Nieto as he has lied for 18 months about the details of the disappearance of our kids,” said the mother of one of students.

A lawyer for the students’ families said “national and international organizations will accompany the relatives of the missing students in a new round of marches and mobilization” that will begin April 6.
