Several thousand students and political activists have marched through downtown Mexico City to demand authorities find out what happened to 43 teacher’s college students who disappeared in 2014MEXICO CITY -- Several hundred students and political activists marched through downtown Mexico City on Sunday to demand authorities find out what happened to 43 teacher’s college students who disappeared in 2014. Police in the southern city of Iguala handed the students over to drug gang members, who purportedly killed them and burned their bodies believing they were working for a rival crime group. Omar Gómez Trejo, the lead investigator in the case, said earlier this week that bone fragments found near a garbage dump near Iguala had been matched to three of the 43 students. Forensic experts have rejected conclusions reached under a previous administration that almost all the students were killed and burned at the dump. Gómez Trejo said some bone fragments were found at a site almost a half mile (800 meters) away, and some had not been burned.
