Thousands of students are up in arms in the Mexican capital following the latest evidence from the mass graves in Iguala that are being examined in Guerrero state.<br /><br />There is still no news of their 43 fellow students who were kidnapped, who many believe are dead; massacred by municipal police in league with criminal gangs.<br /><br />“We want to know where they are. We want them alive. We want answers. Because as a student nowadays one is in danger in Mexico. And one is in danger because the government is afraid of students, it sees us as a threat because we challenge them,” said one young man.<br /><br />The lawlessness and loss of life in Guerrero and elsewhere in Mexico is becoming a serious problem for the government, which promised to end the violence in its election campaign two years ago.<br /><br />Protesters stoned the Attorney General’s headquarters and tried to set it on fire. It issued a statement saying 50 arrests, mostly of police officers, have been made already in the case. The demonstration also managed to close Mexico City’s main thoroughfare. <br /><br />As this was going on back in Guerrero students and teachers marched together to demand more support for education, blocking the state highway linking it to Mexico City.
