– New arrest warrants are in the works in one of Mexico’s most high-profile cases, Reuters reports. The Sept. 26, 2014, disappearance of 43 students from a rural teachers’ college in the southern state of Guerrero remains one of the most infamous incidents of Mexico’s 13-year drug war. The new arrest warrants for members of the military, including soldiers stationed at a nearby base at the time, are expected to be announced by Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on the sixth anniversary of the students’ disappearance. “What’s matters most is to find out where the young men are,” Lopez Obrador said Tuesday, per the AP. He did not specify the targets of the arrest warrants, but noted that he will also address the charges against Tomas Zeron, a top security official in the previous administration who is wanted for tampering with evidence and torture in the case. Last week, Lopez Obrador called on Israel, where the ex-head of criminal investigations is believed to be located, to offer him no protection from facing justice back home. The Sept. 26, 2014 kidnapping remains one of the most infamous incidents during the 13 years of Mexico’s drug war. Lopez Obrador told family members shortly after he took office nearly two years ago that there would be no impunity for anyone involved in the crime. Investigators in July found a bone fragment belonging to one of the student teachers, which authorities said could open new leads. Before that, authorities had definitively identified the remains of just one student teacher.
