               Thousands March in Mexico for 43 Missing Students

   by VOA News

   Thousands of protesters marched Wednesday across Mexico, joining
   relatives of 43 missing college students to demand their return amid
   fears a police-backed gang executed them.

   Last week, authorities in Guerrero state found mass graves with the
   charred remains of up to 28 people.  Authorities say it will take at
   least two weeks to confirm the identities of the bodies.

   The students disappeared September 26 after municipal police officers
   working with a gang took several students away in patrol cars in the
   city of Iguala.

   President Enrique Pena Nieto deployed hundreds of federal officers
   Monday to take over security in Iguala and disarm the local police.
   Twenty-two local police have been arrested in connection with the
   violence.

   Wednesday in Mexico City, people watching the protesters from the
   sidewalk held their fists up and chanted "you are not alone!"
