Overview
- President Claudia Sheinbaum said there have been more than 10 recent arrests tied to the 2014 disappearance, with specifics to be released when prosecutors determine it will not affect the case.
- Special prosecutor Mauricio Pazarán is leading the review of historical call data from September 26–27, 2014, a method authorities say had not been fully applied before.
- Families were briefed at Palacio Nacional, where officials confirmed arrests that include two former municipal police officers from Iguala and Huitzuco.
- Sheinbaum directed Undersecretary Arturo Medina to contact two former members of the GIEI about rejoining the investigation, and the government is consulting the United Nations on bringing in other experts with families’ consent.
- Relatives welcomed the outreach yet pressed for faster progress, noting no substantive updates on extradition efforts for Tomás Zerón in Israel or Ulises Bernabé in the U.S., while officials also referenced new search locations.
