PROGRAM # 7772 12:00 PM PT
Mexico Edition.
A video in which an important government official and specialists from Mexico’s Attorney General manipulate remains of bones in the San Juan River, was shown by international experts while concluding their investigation into the disappearance of the 43 students from Ayotzinapa. According to the experts, the video proves that officials came to the place one day before divers from the Marines reported the finding of bags with fragments of human bones there, and this was not reported in the government investigation into the case. Also, judges from the Interamerican Commission of Human Rights reported that information was falsified about the possible transfer of drugs, that those accused of burning the students were tortured, and top government officials implicated are not being investigated. The Interdisciplinary Group of International Experts reiterated that the 43 students were not burned in hte Cocula dump. Martha Elena Ramírez hosts Voz Pública from Mexico City.
Guests: Ángela Buitrago, Claudia Paz, Carlos Beristáin and Francisco Cox, members, Interdisciplinary Group of International Experts; James Cavallaro, President, Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos, Mexico City.
