OSLO. - Yesterday morning, a student from the National Autonomous University of Mexico, identified as Adán Cortés Salas hit the national and international headlines when he interrupted the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize ceremony to protest on behalf of the 43 missing students from Ayotzinapa.

A security guard dragged him by force out of the room and that same day it was reported that Norwegian authorities arrested him and charged him with orderly disruption. Prior to the incident, Cortés Salas had requested political asylum in the Norse country where he had been living for two weeks. Arguing that, if he went back to Mexico, he could run the same fate as the teacher trainees murdered on September 26th.

Once arrested, an immediate expulsion and other possible retaliations were considered by officials. It goes without saying that Norway rejected his asylum request; however, to finalize criminal matters, he will have to pay a 15,000 Norwegian krone fine, which is equivalent to 2,098 dollars.

UPDATE: Cortés' brother posted on Facebook that the bail has been paid by an anonymous "angel."

A police statement reported that the young man will be transferred first to the foreigner's unit, and then to the Trandum Detention Center for Foreigners, located in the Norwegian capital.

On Wednesday morning, Adán Cortés burst into Oslo's City Hall with a Mexican flag that had "blood color" stains referring to the violent deaths of the teacher trainees that were first kidnapped by the Iguala, Guerrero municipal police, and later believed to have been killed by organized crime.

Reaching the Nobel prizewinner, Cortés pleaded Malala Yousafzai for any intervention; the brave 17 year-old Pakistani was being awarded for her fight against child oppression and the right for women education.
