Drug rehab center poisoning: chemical cause discovered

Investigators at the Jalisco Institute of Forensic Science (IJCF) have discovered the chemical that caused the deaths of five people and the poisoning of 30 others at the Garam drug rehabilitation center in Guadalajara on Christmas day.

Based on their symptoms, the victims were treated for cyanide poisoning at hospitals. Most were released in stable condition the following day.

But now the autopsy results and other tests have come in, and according to Claudio Lemus Fortoul, general director of the IJCF, the substance was not cyanide, but aminobenzine, also known as aniline.
