Mexican President to Meet with Families of 43 Disappeared Students 
-------------------------------------------------------------------


 
President Peña Nieto's remarks come as families of 43 students missing
in Mexico demand answers of their own, nearly a year after their loved
ones disappeared in the state of Guerrero after coming under attack by
local police the night of September 26. An independent report has
rejected the Mexican government's claim the students were killed by
members of a local drug gang and incinerated at a garbage dump. Peña
Nieto has agreed to meet with representatives of the missing students'
families ahead of the anniversary next week.
