59 homemade explosive devices found on Ayotzinapa bus

Mexico City authorities have discovered 59 homemade explosive devices concealed within a bus used by students and parents from Ayotzinapa. The find occurred during a security inspection conducted jointly by the Secretariat of Citizen Security (SSC), the Secretariat of Government, and the National Human Rights Commission, targeting vehicles transporting the group.

Specialized SSC elements found a blue box containing 59 white PVC tubes and fuses during a search of one of the buses detained at the Tlalpan toll plaza on the Mexico-Cuernavaca highway. Police reports indicate the materials were secured by specialized "Zorros" personnel for analysis, as they were suspected of containing gunpowder.

The confiscated devices were subsequently transferred to the Attorney General's Office of Mexico City for expert evaluation. Reports indicate that the operation and inspection were carried out without a judicial order. Currently, 17 buses associated with the group remain detained in the Tlalpan toll area.
