LOADING ERROR LOADINGMEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexican authorities have arrested the former governor of the southern state Guerrero for his alleged involvement in the disappearance of 43 students in 2014, a case that has become a symbol for impunity and state involvement in cartel violence. Federal prosecutors said Thursday that they arrested Ángel Aguirre, Guerrero’s former governor, on accusations of “concealing evidence to determine the whereabouts of the students” of the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers’ College. Aguirre governed Guerrero from 2011 until he resigned in October 2014, one month after the students disappeared. Clemente Rodríguez, the father of one of the students, recalled that from the beginning families asked for Aguirre to be investigated. The administration of former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who served from 2018 to 2024, described the Ayotzinapa case as a “state crime.”
