According to a report by an independent panel of experts, Mexican security forces were complicit in the abduction of 43 student teachers in 2014 and concealed documents that revealed their whereabouts. The Interdisciplinary Group of Independent Experts (GIEI) stated that the Army, Navy, police, and intelligence agencies knew where the students were minute by minute and collaborated to make them disappear. The previous government's conclusion that corrupt police and drug gang members were responsible for the abduction was found to be riddled with errors, and officials hid information and used torture to obtain false testimonies.
