Students attending “preparatoria número 8”, a feeder school
for the University of Guadalajara, have gone
missing, as has one of their parents. The University itself has denounced the
disappearances.
All five have been missing since failing to return home last
Friday, December 9.
In a press release, the University expressed its outrage and
concern, while at the same time demanding that the authorities locate, as soon
as possible, the missing students and parent.
The University also demanded an explanation of the “reprehensible
acts”, clearly alluding to the fact that it assumes the students and parent
have met with foul play. The press release further stated that evidence existed
of armed groups operating with impunity, and that the authorities have done
nothing to address the problem.
The
University of Guadalajara further stated that it would provide the families of missing persons and members of School
8 its full support, as well as any
required advice.
The
release ended with the director of School No. 8, the Director of the School Education System, and the Board
of Regents strongly demanding
immediate action by the authorities.
