Unanswered Questions: Mexico's Missing Students and Complicity of Security Forces

International investigators, who have been trying to solve the disappearance of 43 students in Mexico for nearly a decade, have ended their investigation, citing persistent obstruction by the armed forces. The investigators accused the Mexican military of withholding evidence and obstructing justice. Only three of the students' remains have been identified, and no one has been convicted in relation to the disappearances. The departure of the expert panel raises concerns that the case may never be solved, despite promises from President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to find answers and deliver justice. The disappearance of the students, allegedly involving a drug gang and security forces, shocked the nation and sparked nationwide protests.
