People protest to demand justice for 43 Mexican students at the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers' College who disappeared in the southwest state of Guerrero in September 2014. The students went missing as they were traveling by bus to participate in demonstrations in Mexico City. Investigators said that they were detained by corrupt police and handed over to a drug cartel, though exactly what happened to them is unclear. In July, a commission created in 2014 under an agreement between Mexico and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights to investigate the atrocity said that the state was responsible for the concealment of vital information, making it impossible to continue its work.

Demonstrators throw molotov cocktails over the gates of Mexico's National Intelligence Centre on the eve of the ninth anniversary of the high-profile, unresolved disappearance of 43 students in 2014. The students, from the Ayotzinapa Rural Normal School, disappeared between the night of September 26 and the early morning of September 27, 2014, when they were traveling via bus to participate in demonstrations in Mexico City. The Mexican government has recently promised to provide the parents of the young people with all available information on the case, which a commission of international experts has found to implicate the army.
