Mexico: 200 pairs of shoes found at clandestine crematorium

Discovery in Jalisco is demonstration of country's crisis of forced disappearance related to organised crime

Two hundred pairs of shoes have been found at a clandestine crematorium on a ranch in the Mexican state of Jalisco, in a disturbing demonstration of the country's crisis of forced disappearance related to organised crime.

Warrior Searchers of Jalisco, a collective of relatives of the disappeared, found the crematorium following an anonymous tip-off, and the authorities have since confirmed the presence of burnt remains and empty bullet casings.
