ELI5: Why those students were killed in Mexico? Purposes?

I can't figure out why all this is happening in Mexico around those students missing. Can you explain that to me, excuse my lack of knowledge.

At this point it is presumed the students, who were activists, were traveling to protest at a meeting where the mayor's wife was to give a speech. So, he had his cops stop their bus and arrest them. They were then turned over to the local Drug Lord for disposition. The rest, as they say, is history.
