Mexico: 2nd political activist killed in Iguala

2015-02-16 5

A second political activist has been killed near Iguala, State of Guerrero, Mexico, not far from where the 43 Ayotzinapa students were kidnapped and disappeared last September. Norma Angelica Bruno, who was active in support of the Ayotzinapa students, was shot dead by two gunman. Almost five months later, the Ayotzinapa case continues to make shockwaves. The chairman of the semi-official National Human Rights Commission Raul Gonzalez said he would push for legislation making forced disappearances a federal crime. However, family members of the 43 disappeared students have little faith that such a measure will, in fact, be approved. Clayton Conn reports from Mexico City. teleSUR
