Mexico Arrests Fourth Suspect In Film Students' Killing

Guadalajara, Mexico, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 18th May, 2018 ) :Mexican authorities said they arrested a fourth suspect Thursday in the killing of three film students who were abducted, tortured and dissolved in acid, an episode that triggered outrage in a crime-weary nation.

The suspect, identified only as Miguel Angel "N," was found hiding out in the small municipality of Degollado in the western state of Jalisco, said state prosecutor Raul Sanchez Jimenez. "Statements by the three suspects in custody enabled investigators to locate" him, Sanchez told a press conference.

He will be charged with aggravated kidnapping, the prosecutor said. The students -- Javier Salomon Aceves Gastelum, 25; Daniel Diaz, 20; and Marco Avalos, 20 -- went missing on March 19 as they returned from shooting a film project outside Guadalajara, Mexico's second city, where they attended the University of Audiovisual Media.
