In 2014, 43 students were travelling back from Iguala to Ayotzinapa after attending a protest against what they saw as discriminatory hiring practices for teachers. They were confronted by municipal police, who opened fire on the buses they were travelling in.
The officers maintain they did so because the buses had been hijacked, while the surviving students say the drivers had agreed to give them a lift.
Three students were killed, two of them shot dead, while the body of the third was found mutilated the next morning near the scene of the shooting.
