The wave of violence against journalists in Mexico appears to have no end, with three more disturbing incidents in a week.
Marco Antonio López Ortiz, information chief for the newspaper Novedades Acapulco, was kidnapped by armed men on 7 June.
After years as a tranquil tourist destination, Acapulco has become a battlefield for rival drug gangs.
Carlos de Jesús Rodríguez, director of the news site Gobernantes.com, was arrested in Veracruz and beaten by police who falsely accused him of assaulting a woman.
Freed without charge, he was admitted to hospital and reported to to be fighting for his life due to his injuries. His website said that Rodríguez had previously been threatened.
In a third incident, the body of newspaper columnist Noel López Olguín, who disappeared on 8 March, was found in a secret grave.
The body was found after a captured drug leader allegedly confessed to the killing and gave police the location of the grave.
These attacks coincide with the publication of a report from PEN Canada and the International Human Rights Programme (IHRP) at the University of Toronto that accused the Mexican government of being complicit in crimes against the press in a country where roughly 70 journalists have been killed since 2000.
