43 students missing in Mexico were kidnapped, murdered and incinerated by police

#iguala #mexico The revelation that 43 students, who had disappeared in Mexico in September last, had in fact been kidnapped, murdered and incinerated by the police is bound to send shock waves everywhere. The revelation has been made by officials who had been investigating the disappearance of the students.
Families of the victims were under the impression that they were still alive - but Mexico's attorney general has confirmed that all the students were killed and burned and subsequently, their remains were thrown into a river. He has rejected claims that the army had any involvement in the mass killing.
Of course, he has indicated that the investigation will not be closed till the culprits are arrested.
The forensic evidence would tend to suggest that the fuel and temperature of a fire at a garbage dump which was used to dispose the bodies was capable of turning 43 bodies into ashes. The Mexican authorities have succeeded in identifying only one body based on DNA test and Austrian scientists who are working on the case have indicated that it is impossible to identify the remaining victims.
Apparently, the conclusion that all 43 students have been killed is based on the testimony of Felipe Rodriguez Salgado, a prime suspect who was arrested a fortnight ago. This man is one of 99 people who have been detained in connection with the crime. The investigation was a massive one and involved 39 reported confessions, nearly 400 declarations, almost 500 forensic tests, 16 raids apart from two reconstructions.
It is also reported that all the 43 students were men who were getting trained to become teachers. The bus in which they were traveling was attacked in the city of Iguala by police who then handed them over to gangs.
