Mexican journalists protest over Javier Valdez killing
Image copyright Image captionJournalists commemorated the veteran crime writer who was shot dead on Monday
Journalists in Mexico have protested against the killing of one of their colleagues and called on the government to take action.
Award-winning journalist Javier Valdez was shot dead on Monday, close to the offices of the newspaper he had founded in his home state, Sinaloa.
He had spent his career investigating drug cartels and had been repeatedly threatened.
He is one of several journalists who have been killed in Mexico this year.
In Mexico City on Tuesday, protesters wrote "They are killing us" and "No to silence" - a phrase used by Mr Valdez - on the road next to the iconic Monument to Independence on the main thoroughfare, Paseo de la Reforma.
Judith Calderón Gómez, the head of journalists' lobby group Casa de los Derechos de Periodistas, told those present that prosecutions had only happened in 0.03% of cases.
She called on the government to "give a real sign they are interested in guaranteeing journalism in the country".

BBC Mundo's Juan Paullier, who met Mr Valdez once, said he was "a charming, brave and respected man" and his death was "a terrible loss for Mexico's embattled journalism".
"He wanted to tell the stories and dreams of the victims," he said, and " in a country where impunity is the norm, the only certainty seems to be that cases like this won't stop".
Mexican news outlets Animal PolÃtico and Tercera VÃa are going on strike on Wednesday to protest against the murder, and the ongoing risks to reporters.
Last week, Mexico appointed a new prosecutor to investigate crimes against freedom of expression - including the killing of journalists.
Mr Valdez had once said: "The government couldn't care less. They do nothing to protect you. There have been many cases and this keeps happening."
Speaking at a launch of his book last year, Mr Valdez said being a journalist "is like being on a blacklist" and that gangs "will decide what day they are going to kill you".
Like Valdez, Breach had reported on organised crime, drug-trafficking and corruption.
Other Mexican journalists killed this year include freelancers Maximino RodrÃguez and Cecilio Pineda Birto, according to the CPJ.
The CPJ says at least 40 journalists have been killed in Mexico since 1992.

During his career spanning nearly three decades, Mr Valdez wrote extensively on drug-trafficking and organised crime in Mexico, including the powerful Sinaloa drug cartel.
The cartel is believed to be responsible for an estimated 25% of all illegal drugs that enter the US via Mexico.
Mexico's President Enrique Peña Nieto condemned the killing, calling it an "outrageous crime", and added that his government remained committed to press freedom.
Sinaloa state attorney general Juan Jose Rios said the death was being investigated, and Valdez's family and colleagues would be protected.
More journalists are killed in Mexico every year than in any other country that does not have a continuing war. The only countries where more journalists are killed are Syria and Afghanistan, according to the group Reporters Without Borders (RSF).
A Hendersonville man was caught having sex with a pig after his penis got lodged in the pig’s vagina. David Chavez of Hendersonville, North Carolina is in police custody after a local farmer found him having “inappropriate relations” with a pig on his property. The farmer, not wanting to be named publicly, reported hearing loud squealing coming from the pig pen in the back area of his property. Suspecting that wild dogs might be trying to hurt his pigs, he quickly grabbed his shotgun and made his way out. "That’s when I saw him. I was just in shock at the sight of it. I yelled at the man to get off my pig or I would damn well shoot him. He was screaming saying he was unable to move as his penis was stuck in the pig’s vagina.” Confused, the farmer alerted police. Deputy Ryan Cooper, an employee at the Hendersonville Police Department, explained “ When we got there they were locked up pretty good. It’s not the sort of situation you expect to get called to, it was extre
Early History The ports of Carthage, seen from the north Carthage was founded as a Phoenician colony near modern Tunis. After the fall of its mother-city Tyre in 585, Carthage became the leader of the Phoenician colonies in the west and founded an informal but powerful empire, which is known for its almost perennial struggle against the Greeks of Sicily and the Romans. In the First Punic War (264-241; the greatest war in Antiquity), the Carthaginians lost Sicily to the Romans, and although their general Hannibal Barca tried to reverse the situation in a Second Punic War, the decline had already started. The Romans sacked Carthage in 146 after a Third Punic War, but later, they refounded the city, which again became prosperous. According to the Greek historian Timaeus of Tauromenion, Carthage was founded in 814 or 813; another author, Justin, suggested 825. For some time, these dates seemed to be contradicted by the results of excavations, which all suggested that the oldes
