Thousands of protesters were again on the streets on Sunday in Mexico City to demand justice in the case of the 43 missing students. And for the first time, parents have learned with certainty the death of one of them, Alexander Mora. DNA analysis confirmed the identification of human remains found near the city of Iguala, in the state of Guerrero.
This first identification strengthens the determination to continue the fight said the spokesman of the parents, Felipe de la Cruz, himself a father of one of the missing. "We will not cry for Alexander, on the contrary we know that his death will sow the seeds of revolution for a profound change in this country," he exclaims, "wherever he is, he must know that fathers do not find rest until justice is done. "
Students have disappeared in late September after an event that led to clashes with security forces. More than 70 people have been arrested in this case including the mayor of the city of Iguala, and his wife, the likely instigators of the alleged massacre.
According to investigators, based on this evidence, the students were killed by members of organized crime on the civic authorities. The bodies were then carefully burned near a landfill and the remains thrown into a river in Cocula.
