The case of the missing Mexican students from 2014, often referred to as the "Ayotzinapa case," is a tragic and deeply troubling incident that occurred in Iguala, Guerrero, Mexico. In September 2014, a group of 43 students from the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers' College disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Here is a summary of the key events and background:

1. Disappearance: On the night of September 26, 2014, a group of students from the Ayotzinapa college embarked on a journey to protest against education reforms and gather funds. They were traveling in buses and planned to attend a demonstration in Mexico City.
2. Confrontation with Police: In Iguala, the students were intercepted by local police forces, allegedly under orders from the mayor and his wife, who were believed to have ties to a criminal gang. A confrontation between the students and the police turned violent, resulting in the deaths of several students and bystanders.
3. Disappearance: After the confrontation, 43 students went missing and were never seen again. It is widely believed that they were abducted by corrupt police officers and handed over to a criminal cartel.
4. Investigation: The case sparked outrage and mass protests across Mexico and internationally. The Mexican government launched an investigation into the disappearance, but it faced criticism for its handling of the case, including allegations of cover-ups and mishandling of evidence.
5. International Scrutiny: The Ayotzinapa case received widespread attention and condemnation from human rights organizations and foreign governments. It highlighted the issue of enforced disappearances, corruption, and impunity in Mexico.
6. Ongoing Search: Despite extensive efforts by families, activists, and investigators, the fate of the 43 missing students remains largely unknown. Only a few remains have been positively identified, leaving many questions unanswered.

The disappearance of the Ayotzinapa students brought attention to systemic problems in Mexico, including corruption, collusion between authorities and criminal organizations, and human rights abuses. It continues to be a symbol of the challenges Mexico faces in achieving justice and accountability.


Now after new text messages have been revealed, calls for accountability are once again being heard across Mexico.
