Mexico City: Mexico's attorney general says that confessions and forensic evidence show that all 43 students who disappeared at the hands of local police in September were killed and then incinerated at a garbage dump in the southern state of Guerrero, a conclusion that relatives of the victims have resisted.

Jesus Murillo Karam today laid out details of the investigation that he said has proved that the fire was hot enough to incinerate 43 people beyond recognition.
