Mexico’s disappeared: 40,000 missing

Families are still looking for their loved ones, blame the government for not doing enough to find them.

Violence between organised criminal gangs and the government in Mexico are being blamed for the disappearance of about 40,000 people.

More than a thousand graves have already been discovered by individuals hoping to find clues as to what happened to their disappeared loved ones.

Mexico’s new government has pledged $20m to investigate what happened to those who went missing.
