Evidence about the 43 missing students may have been destroyed: experts
Also the Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts said that Mexican authorities did not notify that some of the young men's clothing was discovered shortly after they went missing.
Mexican authorities did not notify families of 43 college students who disappeared after a clash with police that some of the young men's clothing was discovered shortly after they went missing, a group of independent experts said Monday.
The Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts also reported that security videos containing visual evidence may have been destroyed.
The group said it will issue a final report on Sept. 6, but wants its investigative mandate extended beyond that date.
The 43 students from the Rural Normal Ayotzinapa teachers college disappeared last September in the nearby city of Iguala, in the southern state of Guerrero.
Relatives have criticized prosecutors, who concluded the students were turned over to a drug gang, which killed them and incinerated their bodies.
