MEXICAN left-wing leader Andres Lopez Obrador demanded yesterday to know how authorities could catch an escaped gangster but be unable to find 43 kidnapped students.
National Regeneration Movement (Morena) leader and twice presidential candidate Mr Lopez Obrador hit out at the government following Friday’s arrest of Sinaloa Cartel kingpin Joachin “El Chapo” (Shorty) Guzman.
The student teachers from Ayotzinapa in Guerrero state were abducted in September 2014 and are feared dead at the hands of a gang. Their remains have not been found.
