Truth Commission Declares Disappearances a 'Crime of State'

| Mexico

The Ayotzinapa Truth Commission, led by Alejandro Encinas, issued its most comprehensive report declaring the disappearances a 'crime of state' (crimen de Estado). The report documented coordination among Iguala municipal police, Guerreros Unidos cartel, and elements of the federal government and military. It identified the Cocula dump narrative as a deliberate fabrication. Arrest warrants were issued for military officers and federal officials.
