Govt to reprobe missing students

Mexico agreed on Tuesday to relaunch its investigation of last year's disappearance of 43 teachers' college students, a probe that has been roundly criticized by independent investigators and relatives of the missing.

The country is accepting recommendations by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, but will not allow a group of independent experts to directly question military troops about the case.

Eber Betanzos, deputy prosecutor for human rights at Mexico's federal Attorney General's Office, said his entity "completely" accepts a report by the five experts.
