Mexican government to charge police with forced disappearances

Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto says charges will be brought against five police officers from Iguala, Guerrero, acting in conjunction with organized crime, for the disappearance of the 43 Ayotzinapa students. The news comes after the United Nations Commission on Forced Disappearances criticized Mexico last week for widespread disappearances throughout the country and impunity for the crime. The Commission also noted that here is no reliable registry of the disappearances. The Mexican government rejected the report but said it will follow some of the recommendations made by the UN Commission.
