The institution stated in a press release that the warrant was issued by an Almoloya de Juarez court in the state of Mexico, and the military officers are the same whom the Special Investigation and Litigation Unit for the Ayotzinapa Case decided not to prosecute in August 2022. According to the report, requesting and obtaining warrants are based on the same facts for which it decided in 2022 not to serve the warrants and drop the charges.

The defendants were military officers who, in any ministerial statement, had not been implicated in the disappearance of the 43 teaching students.

The only reference is that they went to the Cristina Clinic on early September 26, 2014, to assist a group of students who received medical attention there.

Federal Judge Raquel Ivette Duarte has now accepted the Prosecutor’s Office’s request and issued arrest warrants against the military officers involved in organized crime and forced disappearance.
