A former Mexican governor has been detained in connection with a high-profile disappearance case. Ángel Aguirre, ex-governor of the state of Guerrero, was taken into custody on Thursday. His detention is related to the 2014 disappearance of 43 students from the Escuela Normal Rural de Ayotzinapa.

The Fiscalía General de la República reported that Aguirre is considered a presumed responsible party in the hiding of evidence related to the students' whereabouts. An order of apprehension was issued and carried out against him. Aguirre was the governor of Guerrero at the time of the students' disappearance.

Further details on the case and Aguirre's status are available from the source, including any potential legal representation for the 70-year-old former governor.
