MEXICO CITY .- A group of "people with their faces covered" occupied the office of the president of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, or UNAM, over the weekend to protest the expulsion of five students and make several other demands, officials of the Mexico City-based university said.

"People with their faces covered have once again attacked the UNAM," the Office of Directors of Schools, Institutes and Centers said in a statement.

The building was occupied on Sunday, two days after students staged a protest march at the UNAM, Mexico's largest university and one of Latin America's leading higher education institutions, officials said.
