It’s not clear what the messages said, but drug cartels often leave handwritten signs next to the bodies of their victims. Sánchez Iñiguez was last seen in the city of Xalisco, known for its links to heroin and opium smuggling, authorities said.

Authorities believe his body was found between 24 and 48 hours after his death. The apparent murder of Sánchez Íñiguez would mark at least the second murder of a reporter in Mexico this year, highlighting an ongoing series of violence against the press in a country that saw 15 members of the media murdered last year.

Two days after the disappearance of Sánchez Iñiguez, another journalist, Jonathan Lora Ramírez, was kidnapped by armed men who forced him into a car. He was found alive and in good condition on Saturday.
