Mexican photojournalist found dead after kidnapping

A photojournalist who had received threats over his work in the northern Mexican state of San Luis Potosi has been found dead, the government said Friday, a day after he was kidnapped. The federal Mechanism to Protect Journalists and Rights Activists called for an "immediate and effective investigation" into the killing of Edgar Daniel Esqueda, who was reportedly kidnapped Thursday by gunmen disguised as police officers. Local media reported that Esqueda's body was found dumped by the San Luis Potosi airport, bound and bearing signs of torture.
