At least one of the 43 Mexican student-teachers missing in the southern state of Guerrero has been identified from charred remains found near a landfill, confirming the investigation’s assessment that the missing group has been murdered.
The identified remains belong to 19-year-old Alexander Mora Venancio, a number of sources said Saturday.

The researchers were able to recover human remains in a landfill and the riverbank and sent a sample to a prestigious university laboratory in Innsbruck, Austria for identification.
The positive identification was confirmed by anonymous Mexican officials speaking to AFP and Reuters on condition of anonymity.

The students from the Ayotzinapa Teacher Training College went missing in the town of Iguala, in the southern Mexican state of Guerrero, on September 26, following a protest to support the rights of rural teachers.
[...]
The mayor of Iguala has been named as the possible mastermind behind the abduction, after tree Mexican gang members confessed to killing the students on the mayor's orders.
Allegedly, the mayor and his wife asked the gang for assistance because the protests interfered with their political campaign. Corrupt police officers allegedly detained the protesting students and handed them over to the gang.
