Mexican President vows no impunity for migrant centre deaths

Mexico City, March 30 Mexican President President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said there will be no impunity for those responsible for the death of 38 migrants who died due to a fire at a detention centre in Ciudad Juarez city near the US border.

"Investigations are being carried out to find out what really happened," Lopez Obrador said at a press conference.
