Mexico says they and U.S.have been investigating the kidnapping and torture of U.S. photographer
Chivis Martinez Borderland Beat

“Tu Fren” [my buddy] sent this in with respect to the post titled “ Veracruz A photographer kidnapped and Tortured in Mexico, part one”

“AG confirms they are investigating and have received a request from the US, through the FBI, to help in the investigation”

1. In regards to information circulating in various media and social media networks, about the case of the American citizen John Sevigny, in which he states there is no investigation in relation to the events where he was a victim: Presumably the events occurred in the city of Cordoba Veracruz, o January 8th and 9th of this year. Also claiming that there is no coordination between the U.S. and Mexico for investigating the facts and clarification.

The attorney general of Veracruz has in fact began an investigation.


2. Oh January 28, 2019 the Embassy of the United States, sent an official communication to the Attorney General of the State in reaction to “The investigation of the kidnapping of John Matthew Sevigny”.
