MEXICO-CRIME-STUDENTS-ABARCA-PINEDA

A file picture taken on July 3, 2014 of former Iguala mayor Jose Luis Abarca and his wife Maria de Los Angeles Pineda during an event at the Municipal Palace in Iguala, Guerrero state, Mexico. Abarca allegedly ordered police to attack a crowd of student protesters, setting off clashes that left six dead. More disturbing yet, 43 students remain missing nearly a month later, the subject of a manhunt and protests that have grown angrier with each passing revelation of the culture of corruption that has permeated this small provincial city in the state of Guerrero, 200 kilometers (125 miles south) of Mexico City.
