Classes have resumed at Mexico's biggest university a week after police broke up a student strike that had paralysed activities for more than nine months.

A BBC correspondent in Mexico City says the university seems to be mostly back to normal.

However, he says the strike organisers were planning a march later on Monday to demand the release of some one-hundred-and-fifty students who've been arrested for their part in the stoppage. The strike at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, UNAM, began over a controversial increase in tuition fees, but the strike leaders then widened their demands, disrupting classes for more than a quarter of a million students.
