In a sudden reversal, Mexico's human rights commission has opened an investigation into the 16 December disappearance of some 50 migrants, after hearing from 18 migrants who said they witnessed the abductions.
El Salvador had denounced the abduction of some 50 migrants by gunmen from a train in Chahuites, Oaxaca but Mexican officials at first denied the kidnapping report.
Migrants described that gunmen boarded a train, robbed and hit the stowaways with machetes and took many of them away at gunpoint.
Migrants are often taken by narcos as new recruits.
