found that members of the Navy and the Army had carried out unreported joint operations and manipulated information relevant to the case, according to the report published on Tuesday.
In the crucial hours after the students went missing, at least 500 calls about the incident were recorded at a government security surveillance centre, the report said. Meanwhile, soldiers who had initially testified they were in their barracks that night were linked to locations where the students are believed to have been taken, it also found.
The Army and Navy also secretly arrested five suspects in the case who were believed to have been missing until now, the report argued, using documents, photographs and testimonies. Experts also found discrepancies over the Army's reporting of the discovery of the body of Julio Cesar Mondragon, one of the Ayotzinapa students who died that night. The institution told the GIEI the differences were an"involuntary error."The GIEI said the motive behind the disappearances remains unclear.
